Free Lunch Sack During Corona Outbreak
Tax deductible
The COVID-19 virus has inspired our team to help in a meaningful, but cost effective way!
We started out two weeks ago providing free sack lunches to inner-city families located in apartment complexes initially to help parents that saw their children suddenly sent home from school. This presented a financial burden on these families as typically these children eat lunch and sometimes breakfast at school. We thought..... What if we could drive through these areas and hand out a sack lunch with a sandwich, piece of fruit, granola bar, small treat and a bottled water??
The idea quickly took off!!!! We were quickly making up to 500 lunches a day with the help of Tinker Street restaurant and our group of volunteers!!! We would then take remaining lunches downtown to help feed the homeless and to Wheeler Mission.
What we were all hoping would be just a few weeks of social distancing has now DRASTICALLY CHANGED!!!!!
Schools are closed for another month... Recommendations of continued social distancing have been expanded through the month of April...
People are being laid off..... Many don't have the resources to purchase food in bulk, so they have to buy when the money is available and pick through what might be left at the grocery store!
Our demand is GREATER THAN EVER! We need your help!!!!!
We have provided over 6000 lunches already and we are able to provide them for approximately $1.50 each delivered!!!
We have just received a matching gift of $10,000.00 from a donor that wishes to remain anonymous.
Help us get the FULL $10,000.00 by raising these funds!
ALL money received will go to provide these lunches
Want to join me in making a difference? I'm raising money to benefit People Helping People Network Inc, and any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.
