Our recent school supply drive was aimed at supporting students in need by ensuring they have the essential tools required for academic success. We set out with a clear goal: to ease the financial burden on families and provide students with the supplies they need to start the school year confidently.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, we raised an impressive $1,550! With these funds, we were able to provide students at Kellom Elementary with the most important supplies, including backpacks, notebooks, pencils, pens, binders, and more. This achievement not only helps the students begin the year prepared but also promotes a sense of community solidarity. Together, we made a meaningful impact on the lives of these students and contributed to building a more equitable future for our community.

In 2023, after slicing 1,800 hoagie buns, we were able to produce 3,600 fresh sandwiches. With your help, we raised $1,105 which went to purchase 250lbs of deli meat (turkey and ham) and over 1,440 slices of cheese. Facing our hungriest summer ever, hundreds of sandwiches went to subsidized daycare programs and were served with healthy sides to children in the St. Paul and Minneapolis areas. More sandwiches were sent to overnight shelters in St. Paul to be served for lunch due to the excessive heat waves. Shelters served sandwiches with fresh produce and toppings.
