The Marengo Area OutReach Enterprises Center is celebrating 25 years of serving families in Marengo and Union with an open house from 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 21, at 829 Greenlee St. in Marengo.

The public is invited to tour the facility, meet the directors and learn more about the services offered.

MORE provides food, clothing, household items and emergency financial assistance to about 110 families each week. Supported by about 75 volunteers and donations from the community and the Northern Illinois Food Bank, MORE distributes more than 3,000 items weekly to those in need.

The center is open from 9 a.m. to noon Wednesdays and from 4 to 6:30 p.m. Thursdays. Donations by check should be made out to MORE. Food, clothing and small household items can be dropped off during open hours.
