HMA Gives Back – School Supply Donation Drive Drive
Let’s Pack Kindness Together to support the students and teachers of City of Erie Community Schools and help them start the school year strong! Your generosity makes a difference!
We’re inviting our friends, families, co-workers and neighbors to stop by and donate much-needed school supplies. Can’t stay … you can pop-in to drop of your donations and meet the Team or come, stay awhile, and enjoy some delicious bites from Agrazing Taste and Alsies Erie Ice Cream - Food Trucks!
