They helped me with food. I had lost my job and was starting a new one. I didn't have enough for the first 2 weeks for gas money but because they provided food for my family, I was able to pay for the gas. I am on my own and making money and my family is happy. Great people, help them help others.

they helped me with food so I could put gas in my car to keep working
This is simply a wonderful idea sparked by a question from a child. What do the kids on the "Free Lunch Program" do when they're not in school? Well, this group answers that question. They provide a meal for kids over the summer and during the school year they fill the gaps on the weekends and holidays. Everyone is a volunteer and happy to help.
