2020 has given us a hundred reasons to cry as we start this week write down or share with someone the thousands of reasons you have to smile.
State Farm celebrates our local non-profits each year through our Neighbor Assist grant. The recipients of these grants have been announced and one of our local non-profits, Joseph's Coat of Central Ohio, is included as one of the 40 grant winners. Congratulations!
If there is a non-profit you are affiliated with that you think others may be interested in please post their information in our comments section. We challenge you in the month of November to give of your time or finances to many worthy causes in the Central Ohio area.
