WestJax Outreach provides food, medical, and dental services to those in need. They recently installed a digital x-ray machine in their dental clinic, allowing them to see x-rays faster and treat more patients. They held a volunteer appreciation luncheon to thank those who help the organization fulfill its mission. The organization is asking for donations of non-perishable food to replenish empty shelves and for people to join the Leviticus 19 Society by donating $10-25 per month to support those in need.
