Grass Roots Neighbors

Happy Halloween! We have a trick or treat station set up at the Legado Building, 200 Culver Blvd, and we will be here until 3pm!

Did you know how much food we give to each family we serve? Each of our recipient families gets a delivery once every two weeks- and we load them up with fresh produce, meat, milk, eggs, pantry staples, snacks for the kids, toilet paper, cleaning supplies, and other essential items we all need in our day to day lives. Supporting our families this way frees up their limited resources and lifts some of the burden they are experiencing during these difficult times. Here is super volunteer Carey Begbie Westerfield with a single family’s haul from this week! Thank you for supporting GRN and our community

Thanks to our generous community- all of the kids in our mutual aid program will be getting a wicked goody bag complete with Sees candy suckers and full sized chocolate bars! We are currently delivering groceries to 55 families on an ongoing basis, providing a much needed resource to our neighbors during these crazy times.

Thank you to New Roads School for holding a food drive for us! Here is our Wednesday team sorting through the bounty We are currently delivering groceries to 55 families every two weeks!

We are so excited to have a trick or treat station in our parking lot at the Legado building (200 Culver). Join us on Halloween from 11-3pm to drive through trick or treat. See the flier for details for the full YMCA event.

Big thank you to the #DeLaRosa family for going the extra mile and baking a birthday cake for one of the households in our #MutualAid program. #community #volunteerswelcome #hopefornextgeneration
