We are under 2 weeks away from Thanksgiving. Time for family and friends to get together to enjoy each others company and give thanks for all of the wonderful blessing this past year has brought.

Our legislature recognized that and we now can make donations at the beginning of the year just before you file your taxes (and it still counts that donation for the previous year).  This changes the donation deadline to April 15th instead of December 31st, or prior to when you file your […]
