We had such a great meal at Free Lunch this Tuesday! Fifteen volunteers came over the course of preparation, serving and clean-up to offer over 120 servings. Jobs varied from lots of washing and recycling (thanks Chris and Tim!), to cutting a watermelon (thanks Hannah!), to serving guests (thanks Jeremy, Marsha, Elizabeth, Misael, and Gail). And thank you so much to everyone I didn't call out by name. The timing of when volunteers arrived and left worked perfectly as it seemed that someone new would step in as somebody else left.
One other organization I want to praise is Table to Table. They have an awesome mission of the reclamation of food that is not able to be sold at the grocery store, but good enough to eat the next day at Free Lunch and other programs in Iowa City. All of our food from Table to Table (this month included some great salad greens, fresh fruit and veggies, and dessert) comes to us completely free. They did a fantastic job for us!
So thank you to everyone who made Free Lunch a reality on Tuesday and if you're looking to help in the future, our next meal is October 11. Hope to see you there!
