St. Mary’s School is in desperate need of a new commercial freezer for the Hot Lunch Program. We replaced one a couple years ago but the other older one we use quit working last week. The cost of a new one is $5,250. With all the COVID19 expenses we have in getting ready to open next month, this was an unplanned expense. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
