We are so grateful for the time and energy that each of you give to HP and the youth we serve on a regular basis. We’ve created a Facebook page and a newsletter as a space for us to share appreciations, highlight the amazing work you all do, and get you connected with more volunteer opportunities (and each other) at HomePlate!
