Thank you for helping SOME via Groupon's "Deal of the Day"!

Groupon ran their "Deal of the Day" in support of SOME from January 24-26. A $10 donation provided four bottles of Ensure to SOME's seniors at Kuehner House. With your help, we collected over 80 individual donations which will allow us to buy 320 bottles of Ensure for our seniors! Thank you!
