YCP can use the support of volunteers to help with its Pantry program from 9:00am to 2:30pm on February 8th.  This is an excellent opportunity to experience the necessary team-work called forth to operate a food pantry.

Dr. Martin Luther King knew what makes a great American: 

Doesn't matter if you're young or old. 
Doesn't matter where you live. 
Doesn't matter how busy you are.
All that matters is what you do for others.
