Did you know you can't use SNAP benefits (food stamps) in the state of Kentucky to purchase toilet paper? To assist Louisville residents in need, the Cathedral Social Concerns Committee hosted a toilet paper drive for the Central Louisville Community Ministries Hygiene Closet on April 25 and 26.The Family Community Clinic (FCC) and its volunteers played a major role in this drive.
