CORE VALUE #5 - Volunteering for Two Great Causes
Hisshonians will be volunteering to help serve a holiday meal on Thanksgiving Day at the Charlotte Rescue Mission. This organization provides residential programs for over 450 homeless, jobless men and women with alcohol and drug addiction issues. For more information, please visit their website at www.charlotterescuemission.org.

Also, Wednesday, December 7 will find Hissho volunteers at Classroom Central on busy stocking shelves with donated school supplies.  Classroom Central equips students to effectively learn by collecting and distributing free school supplies. Functioning as a Free Store for teachers, Classroom Central serves as an invaluable resource for area students and classrooms. Visit their website if you'd like to get involved or donate, at classroomcentral.org.

The Hissho family has pulled together and donated 13 turkeys for the families in The Sandbox, affected by hardship and disease. Way to go Hisshonians!!  
 
The Sandbox is an organization authorized by the Levine's Children's Hospital that serves individuals and families who are facing challenging circumstances and obstacles in their lives, both emotionally and financially due to terminal disease and/or circumstance. They're currently taking up a collection of food items for the upcoming Thanksgiving Holiday to that cause. If you would like to donate or volunteer, visit their website WhatsInYourSandbox.org.
