I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone that helped out with Sunday's meal. It's not easy cooking for 70+ people...that said, these folks often get meals that are easy to prepare for a crowd. We were able to not only drop off the bagged lunches, but our friends enjoyed the cans of iced tea, baked chicken, and the potato/pasta, garden salads and desserts you helped out with. This pic is from a message from one of the site coordinators....you truly do make a difference in the lives of our friends and neighbors in need....no questions asked...you just show up 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Just dropped off canned iced tea, rploasted chicken, potato and pasta salad, garden salad, dinner rolls, dessert, AND the bagged lunches!! Folks were lining up but got out of the line to help me unpack. Everyone was in a great mood and ready to eat. Thank you doesn't seem big enough to express the gratitude I feel right now. Hope you all get to enjoy the day!

A huge shout out to our friends at The Northern Rhode Island Food Pantry, who also dropped off bread donations. We cannot do what we do without your support!
