FirstLight employees accumulated enough Ham Rewards at Coborn’s over the past month and a half to donate 3 hams to the Mora Food Pantry.  Thank you for donating your rewards to this cause!

Thank you to all who contributed to our employee food drive, which ended on March 31st.

FirstLight employees donated a combined total of 580 pounds of food, paper products or toiletry items to area food pantries in the month of March, beating our last year’s goal of 550 pounds.  Thank you for your donations!

The donations have already been delivered to the pantries.  If you still have items you wish to donate, you can deliver the items to the pantries at your convenience.  Thank you!
