No More Burritos
Did you know that while held in detention, our families are served burritos (think freezer section burritos), and sometimes crackers and juice for every meal for every day they are there? A certain 8-year-old who recently stayed with us after 14 days in detention sat down for his first meal at the shelter, looked down at his plate of soup and fruit and tortillas and exclaimed, "I hope I never see another burrito in my whole life!" Want to bless our families with a warm nourishing meal - join us in the kitchen! We need you!!
