Thank you Marilyn for all you do for our pantry! You help keep our free pantry organized, stocked, and looking amazing. You are the kindest person. Please show Marilyn how thankful we are for her hard work in the pantry.

"My name is Marilyn Clayton. I retired in 2011 from the business office at Perry Memorial Hospital. In my spare time I enjoy working in my flower gardens and spending time with my family. I am a volunteer at Second Story. I work with the clothing and supplies in the pantry. I really enjoy volunteering at Second Story. It is a wonderful facility and they provide so much for the kids in our community. The kids are provided with a safe place to go with several activities, food, clothing, and school supplies. " -Marilyn Clayton

Please help us thank our next volunteer Tahleya Carter! Thank you for volunteering! Thank you for giving back now to our teens in this community. We appreciate you.

"Hi my name is Tahleyah and I've been attending Second Story since I was a freshman in highschool. This past December in 2025 an amazing opportunity was given to me by Second Story to gain work experience through them. For about 6 months I had the opportunity to help out as a volunteer. I would help out in the kitchen, help supervise activity nights, and pretty much help out anywhere I could. Second Story is an amazing place that has helped me out greatly since I've been attending. It's wonderful how driven Second Story to help members of our community in a multitude of ways either by providing a safe space for teens, helping people in need, providing back to school supplies, or providing food and pantry items. In many ways Second Story would go to great lengths to help out the community and their teens. I am so grateful to have had access to a place like Second Story throughout my teen years. I'm forever appreciative of how supportive they've been and everything they have done for me. Second Story will forever hold a big impact on my life and in my heart."
- Tahleyah Carter

"Whatever it is that you wanna do, stay passionate about it, stay fearless, and just don't care about what other people think." - Dylan O' Brien

Giving a little extra can make a BIG difference! ❤️

Tuesday, August 18th, we loaded up extra shoes, T-shirts and food items our teens didn’t need or want.

We’re excited to partner with C.A.M.P. — Central American Mission Projects to help get these items to people who can use them! 🌎❤️

Thank you, C.A.M.P., for helping us turn extras into blessings! 🙏📦

The next volunteer is Petey Callhan. The joy he brings to our kitchen is amazing. He helps out volunteering in the kitchen feeding teens every Friday night. We are so thankful for your time you take out of your Friday nights to serve our teens at the teen center. Thank you so much Petey! Help us show Petey our appreciation for all he does at Second Story!

"I'm Petey Callahan. I wash dishes and serve food to the kids on Friday nights. I like the sound of the kids playing and screaming and just being kids. I have gotten to know some of the kids and I like the cross generational communication. I think the Second Story is a great place for the kids to hang out. We had to hang out at the public parking lot in our town. The Second Story is much better. It is more organized, and the children get food and other things that are donated" -Petey Callahan
