Celebrate the spirit of giving this St. Patrick’s season at The Early Owl. Now through March 30, we’re proud to serve as a donation drop-off location for the Muskegon St. Patrick’s Day Parade Community Donation Drive benefiting Mission for Area People.
Stop in during your next brunch visit and bring along non-perishable food items or essential hygiene products like soap, deodorant, shampoo, conditioner, and feminine hygiene products to support families across the Muskegon Lakeshore. Collection boxes, provided by Feeding the Lakeshore, will be available in-house—let’s come together as a community and fill them up. ☘️
