VNA of the Treasure Coast was honored to receive a generous donation of school supplies from a shopper at our VNA Hidden Treasures Thrift Store!

These much-needed items were delivered to the Hope for Families Center, where Director of Development Lindsey Kross (pictured) gratefully accepted them. The supplies will be used at the center or given directly to children living there to help them start the school year ready to learn.

The Hope for Families Center is a vital community resource dedicated to supporting and strengthening families in need. We’re grateful to play a small part in their important work.
