Even though in summer luncheons are not scheduled, the pantry still has supply needs and Cypress members are generous in their donations.  To continue this invaluable support throughout the summer, for the next 3 months drop-off process is a bit different.  You may drop them of at Heidi Lawler’s home between Monday, June 15 through Friday, June 18th. She lives in Charbonneau.  You can find her address and contact information in the Cypress Handbook/Directory.  Her email address is heidilawlwer2711@outlook.com. Drop items off at the front porch, please email, call – leave message, or text if you can to let her know you will be dropping off supplies.
