Last month Addy's school was collecting food for an organization here in town called Titus County Cares. Titus County Cares is a faith-based non-profit organization that has partnered with local agencies and organizations to help meet the needs of Titus County residents in an efficient manner. They also have back pack for kids and they help feed children on the weekends who's families can not afford it. So her class got to carry the items that they have collected and donate to these children and this great cause. Not only did they donate but they also got to help stuff the bags for children. While stuffing the bags it broke my heart knowing that is all some of the kids are going to eat over the weekend. They started off with one package of Ramen noodles, then on juice drinka microwaveable macaroni, beef jerky stick, fruit roll up, breakfast bar and a cereal bar.Addy was handing off her first bag that she had stuffed and went to get back in line to stuff some more.
Over all the kids stuffed over 150 bags within an hour! We were so proud of them! The kids did great and were so excited to be helping. For more information on Titus County Cares you can visit the site at http://tituscountycares.org/
