This Halloween, the students of the Westonka High School National Honor Society are turning tick-or-treating into a frightfully good way to fight hunger! Students will be collecting canned goods, personal care and monetary donations to help stock our food shelf and support neighbors in need.

We think its a boo-tiful way to make a difference! 👻

A few weeks ago, the Good Shepherd Women's Ministry hosted their annual Women's Bruch to support WeCAN. It was a morning filled with delicious food, friendship and encouragement. Thanks to their giving spirit, we received a check for $9,300, which will be matched by a generous local family!

Thank you to all of these amazing women!

A couple weeks ago, we got a delivery so big it almost didn't fit through the door!

Thank you to the Mount Calvary Foundation for their generous grant that allowed us to purchase this refrigerator/ freezer combo. It is already getting good use - filled with perishable, nutritional food to be given out to clients.

We also have to recognize the amazing delivery driver from R+L Carriers who spent his valuable time to get it in the building - we could not have done it without him and his expertise!

Come see the new fridge this Thursday at our open house!
