✨ Join Us in Spreading Light & Love This Holiday Season! ✨ On Monday, December 1st, Clifton Mill is honored to partner with the Greene County Commissioners in support of the Greene County FISH Pantry. The Commissioners will help us flip the switch on the Legendary Lights of Clifton Mill, and a portion of the proceeds from the gate that evening will be donated directly to the FISH Pantry—an organization serving over 1,100 families in Greene County every month. The mission of the Greene County FISH Pantry is simple but powerful: to alleviate hunger and need within Greene County by acquiring and distributing food and care items to those in need. Unconditional love for our fellow man is the value at the core of the mission of FISH. 💛 “Unconditional love, or charity, always brings about good — it never fails.” We will also be collecting non-perishable food items at the gate to help stock the pantry’s shelves during this high-need season. 🛒 Items Currently in High Demand at the Pantry If you’d like to donate, here are some much-needed items: ◾️Canned meats (chicken, tuna, salmon) ◾️Peanut butter & jelly ◾️Pasta & pasta sauce (no glass jars) ◾️Green Beans ◾️Cereal & oatmeal 🎄 Come enjoy the magic of the lights and help shine hope into our community. Every donation—big or small—makes a meaningful difference. We hope to see you there! ✨
