Via email from Sara Holland at Leslie’s House in High Point:
Hello everyone,
I wanted to send out a message about two of the ministries at West End Ministries that are in need of help. The Kids Cafe at Rankin Memorial Church is a program that feeds dinner to children Monday Tuesday and Wednesdays. Right now the program is averaging 50 kids a night with the projected growth of approximately 75 per night due to the summer break. These are children who would not get an evening meal if it were not for this program.
The Food Ministry serves a hot meal every Thursday night at English Road Baptist Church. This past Thursday, the ministry fed 175 people. In addition to the hot dinner served weekly, the food ministry provides a food box to families once a month to supplement their food intake.
Both Kids Cafe and The Food Ministry need paper plates, disposable eating utensils, 16oz cups and paper towels. Kids Cafe could use about 75 non-breakable plates for the kids to use for eating. This will cut back on the ongoing need for paper plates and can be cleaned and reused.
Also, Kids Cafe needs at least one volunteer Monday Tuesday and Wednesdays from 4-6 to help serve food and clean up.
If we could get this need circulated it would be GREAT!
