Nonprofit organizations Washington For Justice and Latinos For Washington, Inc. are co-sponsoring their annual holiday meal kit giveaway. The meals will be available on Saturday, Dec. 14th at 11 a.m. at the Mills Seed Building located at 212 N. Iowa Avenue in Washington. The groups anticipate increased grocery costs this year and are budgeting $50 per meal kit. KCII spoke with Washington For Justice member Bethany Glinsmann to learn more about the giveaway, “Basically how it works is however much money we raise that affects how much food we can giveaway, so the more donations come in the more food we can give to families. So our goal this year is to raise five thousand dollars, and that would allow us to provide approximately one hundred boxes to families in our community.” Community members in need of food this year will have the option to select a traditional midwestern meal kit or a Latino meal kit, with the distribution starting at 11 a.m. on Dec.14th while supplies last. To receive a kit, just stop by the Mills Seed Building and pick one up. No registration is required.
