by Christian HoffmanCommunity Missions was honored to attend AFP (Association of Fundraising Professionals) WNY Chapter's National Philanthropy Day event on November 15! We celebrated contributions made by local philanthropists, all of whom dedicate themselves to making our community a better place to live.
Two of our longtime volunteers, Kay & Bonnie, were honored as Distinguished Honorees. They have gone above & beyond for Community Missions with providing a kind & welcoming presence to our Niagara neighbors in our Community Kitchen!
