We are in need of canned and dried goods for the Food Pantry. We also need coffee and tea for Nutrition Services, as well as bleach and Depends adult diapers. We encourage you to hold a community food drive. If  you have any questions about whether or not we can use an item, please don't  hesitate to contact us.

The Endwright Center has a fundraising auction each April. The auction is devoted entirely to donated items. Any item in good working condition is welcome. In the past, people have donated artworks, kitchen appliances, jewelry, exercise equipment, stationary, etc. Auction items are accepted year round.

Donated time is also welcome. Area 10 is always in need of volunteers to help out in the community. Tell a friend about Area 10!
