MLK Day of Service - 2020 Recap
We wish to extend a huge thank you to all those who donated to and volunteered at our MLK Day of Service project on Monday, January 20, 2020! With over 119 volunteers present, we made 736 completed lunch bags (included: a PB&J sandwich, a fruit cup, a dessert, a juice box, and a napkin) and 121 extra sandwiches for the patrons of Trenton Area Soup Kitchen (TASK). Your hard work and generosity provided food for over 800 people in need. Thank you!
A huge thanks to Rise Middle School Youth Group for setting up the cafeteria for the project, and to the Knights of Columbus, who donated the great majority of the bread, peanut butter, and jelly, and drove the finished lunch bags to TASK when the project was finished! We couldn't have done it without you!
