“Feeding people is an act of love that brings hope, dignity, and community to those in need.”
Maggie Jackson’s legacy of kindness continues to make a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals and families in our community. Through Maggie’s Table Emergency Food Pantry, Spring Lake Family Support Services had the honor of serving 30 hot meals to individuals experiencing homelessness. Maggie’s words, “This is about feeding people,” continue to guide our work and remind us that every meal shared is an opportunity to show compassion, care, and respect.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to Maggie Jackson’s family and relatives near and far for their continued support of this annual initiative. Their generous donations of food and gift cards helped make this special day possible and allowed us to honor Maggie’s memory through service. Their love for Maggie and commitment to helping others continue to inspire everyone who takes part in this meaningful effort.
We are especially grateful to Kimberly Jackson McKenzie for her generous donation and support. Because of the kindness shown by Maggie’s family, friends, and community supporters, families were able to receive Food Lion gift cards to help purchase groceries and other essential food items. These gift cards provided immediate assistance to recipients who are facing food insecurity and helped bring comfort and relief to families in need.
We also want to thank every person who donated food, prepared meals, volunteered time, and helped make this initiative successful. A special thank you goes to our delivery team for making sure the hot meals reached individuals in need throughout the community. Your time, care, and dedication helped ensure that each meal was delivered with kindness and respect.
Each year on September 5th, Maggie’s birthday, Spring Lake Family Support Services will continue our food drive and feed our community in Maggie Jackson’s memory. Maggie’s Table is more than a meal. It is a reminder that kindness can bring people together and create lasting change. Our Emergency Food Pantry is open Monday through Thursday from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. We also deliver food to individuals in Spring Lake who do not have transportation. With continued community support, we will keep honoring Maggie’s legacy by serving others with love and compassion.
