Dear Friends of Lake Elkhorn Middle School,
When I drove up to LEMS on Monday, there was already a line of family members at the cafeteria door. We quickly unloaded all of your contributions onto the tables and started to organize the food and household cleaning items across several tables. We also had 75 boxes of produce and protein from The Roving Radish filled with healthy food like eggs, greens, ground turkey, fruit, peanut butter.
By the time we left, there was virtually nothing left and we had run out of Roving Radish boxes. Over 60 families came, the biggest crowd yet. Unfortunately, the demand for these items is only increasing.
A special thank you to Sara Kirkpatrick and Maggie Thompson for setting up, greeting folks at the door, answering questions and helping folks to their cars with their items. Staff from the Judy Center, Cradlerock Elementary and LEMS have been very welcoming. Those who come are extremely grateful for what they receive and thank each person they encounter.
.
The Kindness Pantry has been a new venture for Christ Episcopal Church this year. As the need expands, our church members respond.
Thanks be to God!
Cathy Whittaker
