The holidays are a time for giving, and this year, ScotSurplus is making it easy to share your generosity with our community. Through December 11, ScotSurplus is accepting donations for three local causes: HOPE for the Holidays, R’Pantry and the Mary S. Roberts Pet Adoption Center.
Give Joy: HOPE for the Holidays
