Making It Happen Inc

We'd like to give a shout out to The Feed Bar for doing a good thing in our community. Not only do they make a very tasty & healthy product, but a portion of the proceeds go back into the community to support local non-profits working with the homeless. Making It Happen is honored and grateful to be associated with this awesome local small business. Go check them out. Get some tasty protein bars and give back to the community too. #Community #Fooddrive #LoveYourNeighbor #food
