American Woodmark has been donating to the local community for over 5 years, and has recently supported other good causes such as King’s Daughters in Stanley, West Lincoln Middle School and Crowders Camps, to name just a few. The company is based out of Winchester, Virginia and you can find their cabinets in local DIY stores such as Lowes and Home Depot.

Leslie made a statement thanking the company. “We are incredibly grateful to the American Woodmark Foundation for their generous donation to Malorie’s Place. Their support will have a profound impact on our mission to empower and uplift our community. Together, we’re making strides to help families affected by addiction, depression, grief, and trauma.

Thank you for believing in our vision and helping us bring hope and healing to those who need it most!”

Hot dogs will be $3 and barbecue sandwiches are $5.
