Growing Up Blessings: Aubree

Growing Up Blessings: Aubree

One Friday, a third-grade girl named Aubree* opened her Blessings bag excitedly, knowing she would get a snack that day in class, like all her friends.

As her teacher looked on, she noticed Aubree’s eyes well up with tears as she pulled out a notecard that was put in each bag. It read three simple but powerful words, “You are loved.”

Aubree carefully taped the note in her locker . . . When the teacher asked why, Aubree said,

“Because I want to remember this every single day.”

Every Friday, thanks to your incredible support, we provide children with food and the assurance that they do not have to worry about where their next meal will come from. Over the past 15 years, we’ve fed over one million children, ensuring they have the necessary nourishment. It’s a journey filled with shared meals, smiles, and the knowledge that we’re making a positive impact together.

As we mark this milestone, we want to express our gratitude to the community that has stood by us. Here’s to the next 15 years of feeding kids on the weekends!
