Times are tough for many families and individuals struggling to make ends meet.  Blessing boxes help those needing a hand up and we've got a list of them and how you can help or get help if needed.

WHAT EXACTLY IS A BLESSING BOX?

Maybe you don't have a blessing box in your city or town.  These are such wonderful addition to any community.

A Blessing Box is a “Little Free Pantry”, which provides non-perishable food (like cereal, canned soup/pasta, and granola bars) as well as hygiene items (including shampoo, soap, toothbrushes/toothpaste, and toilet paper) to local residents when they need them.

 

Owensboro is fortunate enough to have several blessing boxes located all over our dear city and we found a list of them.
