Helping with food distribution is priceless - watching the gratitude of those you serve and the humbleness of the students who do it. And costly because middle school kids can eat! All jokes aside. It cost us nothing but extreme pride for our students who will step up and help out. Food is the finest reward. Thank you students for helping this year.
