i Take The Lead started Lead With Heart, a food basket program, to help bring food on Valentine’s Day to 30 families in need.

Lead With Heart Food Basket Program
Valentine's Day is coming before you know it! NOW TAKING DONATIONS
For 10 years, we have received an overwhelming response from our i Take The Lead Inc members, along with many businesses and individuals in the communities. The members step up and donate food, money, other essential items for families in need. They even volunteer to go to local grocery stores with a letter, provided by the officers of i Take The Lead, to solicit donations. Several stores have been very generous in their gifting to these families. For tax purposes/administrative purposes, we keep this separate from the Non-profit, so 100% of all proceeds go to the Families in need.
