Choice Blog, Week 1
Tide me over is a program my mom and I are in charge of. There are many people in our school district who receive free lunches, we feel terribly sorry for the people who really cant afford it. Every Thursday we go to the Heritage school and pack a bag of food for each kid that receives free lunch. In these bags of food we give each kid a can of spaghettios/raviolis/soup, cereal, macaroni and cheese, oatmeal,a granola bar, two snacks, pudding/applesauce/fruit cup, ramen noodles, and a juice. Our church, Crossroads Community Church, helps us out with this program. They give us money each month to help buy this food, we also get donations from all over! Around the time of Christmas we give each of the kids a coupon for $25 to spend at Ransoms. Also near the end of August we have this thing called stuff the bus. Stuff the bus is held at our church and we borrow one of the schools bus's. From 9am-noon we have the bus open and people can donate to the tide me over program.
We are very into this whole tide me over program, it's a part of our lives! We've been doing it for years. I am glad to be a part of something this amazing.
