What an incredible week it has been! Every act of kindness, big or small, reminds us that our community truly cares for one another.
A heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who made a difference this week:

🥘 To Lynn, Irene, and the wonderful volunteer from Family Dollar who prepared homemade ziti, lasagna, salad, and bread to provide hot meals for our neighbors experiencing homelessness or hardship. Thank you also to Robbi for donating delicious desserts to make those meals even more special.

🥪 Thank you to Lynn for also dropping off sandwiches, rolls, zucchini, and other food for the community fridge while continuing to share meals with those in need throughout town. Your generosity reaches so many people.

🥡 A huge thank you to Dynasty for donating more food containers. These donations make it possible for our volunteers to safely package and share meals with our community.

🥫🥖🥘 Thank you to Lighthouse Credit union for donating to the fridge, helping to nourish our community.

❤️ Thank you to PJ Knowles, who donated juice, pasta, milks, sauce and other food and goods to the fridge out of the kindness of their heart!

💚 And to every volunteer, donor, and supporter who gave their time, food, supplies, or encouragement this week, thank you. Because of you, our fridge continues to be a place of hope, dignity, and kindness for anyone who needs it.

Every meal served, every container donated, every loaf of bread shared, and every helping hand reminds us that compassion is alive and well in our community.

Together, we're proving that little acts of kindness can make a big difference. 💚🍽️🥖

🌼 A Little Kindness Goes a Long Way 🌼

Today we found the sweetest surprise waiting at the community fridge... beautiful little mason jars filled with fresh wildflowers, along with a sign that read:

"FREE For the Taking (The Flowers)" 💛

We have no idea who left them, but we want you to know that your kindness didn't go unnoticed. What a beautiful reminder that this little fridge isn't just about feeding hungry stomachs, it's about feeding hearts too.

Someone who may have been having a difficult day got to take home a bouquet simply because a stranger cared enough to make one. That's a pretty special thing.

So to our anonymous flower friend... thank you. Thank you for sharing a little piece of joy, beauty, and love with our community. We hope your kindness comes back to you tenfold. 🌻💐

Sometimes the smallest gestures leave the biggest impact. ❤️

💚 Weekly Community Fridge Gratitude Post 💚

Some weeks remind us just how amazing this community truly is, and this has been one of those weeks.

A huge thank you to Ashley Demers, who not only picked up donated food from a fellow church member, but also brought her grandkids along to help stock the Community Fridge. Watching the next generation learn the importance of kindness, generosity, and serving others is something really special. Those are lessons that will last a lifetime. ❤️

A heartfelt thank you to the Knights of Columbus and St. Anne's Church for donating their leftover homemade chicken salad and egg salad sandwiches from bingo. Instead of letting good food go to waste, they chose to bless our community with it.

Thank you as well to everyone who helped make sure additional meals found their way to the fridge, including the generous donation of hot meals and watermelon cups that were shared with our neighbors in need.

And, as always, thank you to the volunteers who quietly work behind the scenes every single week! They're checking the fridge, picking up donations, cooking meals, cleaning, organizing, and making sure this project continues to serve so many families. Your dedication is the heartbeat of the Community Fridge.

Every sandwich, every meal, every ride to pick up donations, every fridge check, and every small act of kindness adds up to something much bigger.

From the bottom of our hearts… thank you for helping neighbors feed neighbors. 💚🍎

As you’re wrapping up your cookouts and celebrations this weekend, don’t forget that those extra servings can make a real difference for a neighbor. If you have safely handled leftovers or extra ready-to-eat food that won’t be eaten, consider sharing them with the community fridge instead of letting them go to waste.

Every donation, big or small, helps keep the fridge stocked and reminds our community what looking out for one another is all about.
