🎄 Community Means Everything 🎄
At Solara, we were honored to play a small part in supporting another wonderful local business — The Grove Shack in Melrose. This year, we were able to purchase Christmas presents for a few children through their Angel Tree, and while our role was small, The Grove Shack has done all of the behind-the-scenes work to make this possible.
They selflessly serve our community year-round, including providing meaningful support to individuals with special needs. Their heart for service and dedication to others is truly something special, and we’re grateful for the impact they continue to make locally.
Christmas is such a powerful reminder of the importance of generosity, kindness, and coming together as a community. If you’re looking for ways to give back this season, we encourage you to consider volunteering for or financially supporting one of these amazing, locally-based nonprofits:
• Answers Resource Facility
• Lake Area Ministries Food Pantry
• Radical Life Ministries
• Mission of the Dirt Road
• Feed the Need of Putnam County
• local animal shelters such as Puppy Hill Farm Animal Rescue & SAFE of Putnam County!
• The Grove Shack at Riddling Groves (ask them about their new non-profit organization!)
Thank you to everyone who supports local businesses, lifts up their neighbors, and helps make this season brighter for those around us. ❤️
