Special Delivery to Star of Hope

A very special thank you to all the residents of Harper's Preserve who donated items for our annual Star of Hope Holiday drive. Representatives from Sam Yager Inc. Development delivered all the items to the Star of Hope Family Center today. A Star of Hope official said many of the woman and children who come to the center for help often do so with nothing more than the clothes on their backs, so your thoughtfulness in sharing with these people truly in need of help is very appreciated.
