St Luke's Cedar Hill has asked us to share this update from the Shelbourne Community Kitchen:
We know that having reliable access to fresh healthy food and people you can call for support can make a world of difference...especially right now. In the past three weeks alone, the Kitchen Pantry program received and filled over 250 requests for food support and they are registering new members every day. And while the team is now a fraction of its original size, they dedicate time every week to call the members who they know are especially vulnerable right now and don't have computers at home to check in. They offer service updates and tell them "Yes! We are still open and here to help in any way we can."
The Shelbourne Community Kitchen might be a small organization, but it has a great big heart. If you are able to do so - please make a donation to the Urgent Food Support Fund today so that the Kitchen can meet the increasing demand.
