The above initiatives, although perhaps individually small in scale, have combined to make a meaningful difference to those among us for whom putting food on the table is a challenge. Lex Eat Together will soon mark its 25,000th meal served or distributed since our first
in-person meal in October 2015. This accomplishment would not be possible without the efforts and dedication of our amazing volunteers or the generosity of our donors. We thank you for making this possible and for putting your shoulders to the wheel to address hunger and food insecurity in our midst.
