We understand that your jobs are essential and your health is very important to us . Therefor we are prepared to box the food up and serve it ourselves as well. Thank you very much for all you do for us . We can’t wait to have everyone back inside to help feed those less fortunate in the downtown Henderson area . We are very grateful for all of you and all that you provide for our guests that are in need of Friends In The Desert.
