Washington for Justice thanks the community for their generosity as they prepare for their holiday meal kit giveaway this Saturday.

The local organization has so far raised enough funds to supply 53 meal kits for residents throughout the county to pick up and prepare at home to enjoy this December. Bethany Glinsmann with Washington for Justice shares a change they’ve made for their second annual event, “This year we’re doing it a bit different so last year we had a sign up form so folks could reserve a box. This year we’re just doing first-come, first-serve, so nobody needs to worry about signing up or sharing their contact information.”

Donations for the kits are still welcome as the group’s goal is to provide more than the 63 kits they distributed last year. Volunteers are also appreciated to help assemble and distribute the kits from 9 a.m.-noon at the Mills Seed Building in Washington. Residents can pick up a traditional or Latinx holiday meal kit for themselves or a family they know are in need beginning at 11 a.m. Donations can be made via Venmo @WashingtonforJustice or by mail, with more information in the flyer above.
