Ross Township coordinates food programs for Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter for eligible Ross Township residents. Donations from local business, churches, schools, service clubs, organizations, labor unions and generous local private citizens help us with providing holiday dinners for residents of Ross Township.

Back to School Assistance Program

Ross Township partners with the Merrillville Police Department and Fraternal Order of Police Lodge #168 to assist children in back to school clothing and supplies.
