MCC days is taking place today, and the Family Resource Centre is being highlighted.

Family Resource Centre executive director Melissa Morrison outlines how you can help the centre.

"We are partnering with the Portage MCC Thrift Shop and Furniture Shop today and we're part of the fundraising days this year," says Morrison. " A portion of the proceeds of sales from today are going to go back to help us be able to provide more programs for free to families in our community."

She notes Centre staff will be present and a display showing their efforts at the stores, with some brochures providing information about the Centre.

"People are curious about what we do and you see a staff or two around stores helping out and in our blue Family Resource shirts today," adds Morrison. "If people have donations that they want to drop off, and they can label them specifically for the Family Resource Centre Event, and they'll get them out as soon as they can this week. I encourage people to get out and shop."
