💙 Thank You, Indi’s! 💙
We are incredibly grateful to Indi’s for providing such wonderful food for our community over the holidays. Your generosity, consistency, and care helped make the season warmer and more joyful for so many.

📝 National Write to Congress Day | January 3
Today is National Write to Congress Day — a reminder that our democracy works best when citizens use their voices.
Writing to your state and federal representatives is one of the most direct ways to share concerns, advocate for your community, and hold elected officials accountable. Whether it’s about housing, small business impacts, or policies affecting your daily life, your perspective matters.
Many people don’t know who represents them — or that a simple email, letter, or phone call can influence change. Today is the perfect opportunity to learn, engage, and participate.
📬 Democracy doesn’t stop at the ballot box.
✍️ Take a moment today to write to your representatives and make your voice heard.
