Feed the Kids June Pick-Up Day

This morning, we are busy with our first Feed the Kids pick-up day of the summer.

We have a wonderful group of volunteers helping us out this morning and we would not be able to accomplish such a big event without them. A group from Charter One drove in from the city this morning and left before 8am to allow time for traffic. Despite their long trip, they are ready to help and eager to start.

We also have volunteers who have helped us with Feed the Kids and various other projects in the past. They are excited to work with us again and have come prepared for the high temperatures. Some even brought a cooler so they can keep their water and other drinks cold.

We are looking forward to working with new volunteers as well. We love seeing new faces of people who sincerely believe in what we do and who are happy to help the needy families in our community.

Our big day has begun and a number of families have already picked up their food! We will see a total of 100 families throughout the day today. Each family will receive 250 pounds of food today and a total of 750 pounds by the end of the summer.
