Executive Director Sandra Stack said their doors are open to everyone and they have a ‘no questions asked’ policy.
“We know one in three children are living in poverty,” she said. “We are serving 80 to 100 kids breakfast every day and we see that number rise consistently.” “Our need has no season. We serve 1,000 meals a day.”
Stack said they could use more turkeys, pies and volunteers.
“We only have two pies, so we need more by this weekend,” she said.

Stack said 60 turkeys are thawing, 100 pounds of potatoes are ready to be boiled and a soup pot of gravy is ready to go.
“Come out and enjoy the meal with some great people,” she said.
