And the final numbers are in from our Annual Pancake Day!

We set an ambitious goal of $70,000, and while we fell just short of that mark, we are thrilled to share that we raised an incredible $67,251.31—over 96% of our goal!

Even more exciting, approximately $13,000 of that total was raised on the day of the event itself, which is truly amazing.

We are incredibly grateful for the generosity of our community, volunteers, sponsors, and everyone who attended and supported this event. It is an honor to stand alongside our community and serve together as we work to make a difference in the lives of our neighbors.

Thank you for helping make this year's Pancake Day such a tremendous success! We couldn't do it without you. ❤️🥞
