๐ŸŒŸ Cooking With Love Delivery Driver of the Week: Maryann Westerlund ๐ŸŒŸ

This week, we are proud to recognize Maryann Westerlund for her extraordinary dedication, compassion, and service to our community.

For over 27 years, Maryann has gone above and beyond as a volunteer delivery driver and support staff, ensuring that meals and essential support reach those who need them most.

Her kindness, generosity, and unwavering dedication have touched countless lives throughout the Keys. Maryann exemplifies what it means to care for your neighbors and strengthen our community through service.

Thank you, Maryann, for your many years of compassion, your selfless spirit, and the difference you make every single day. You are truly an inspiration to us all! โค๏ธ

What an exciting and memorable day at Cooking with Love! ๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง

We were honored to welcome British Queen Mum Claire Brummell to todayโ€™s meal preparation and delivery service. What a special moment for our volunteers, staff, and community! Claire has been a longtime supporter of the annual Queen Mother Pageant, which has helped raise funds and awareness for Cooking with Love for many wonderful years.

A huge thank you to everyone who helped make the 40th Queen Mother Pageant such a fun, successful, and meaningful event supporting our mission of feeding neighbors in need throughout the Keys.

Todayโ€™s delicious meal featured teriyaki beef, fried rice, tomato and cucumber salad, egg roll, and a sweet mandarin orange for dessert. Yum! ๐ŸŠ๐Ÿฅข
