💪🚚 All-Female Delivery Team!

Emily, April & Amy made an incredible delivery crew who handled a flat tire & then delivered beds, warmth, and hope to kids who had been sleeping on the floor. Their strength and energy made every stop brighter.

Here’s to women lifting up our community — in every way.
