Thanks to everyone who was able to make it out to Stone Soup 2018, and to all those who otherwise supported our annual fundraiser through donations and word-of-mouth support!

We’ll see you next year!
Please help us ensure that every child attending school is well-nourished every day.
Please let us know if you plan to attend our Annual Meeting.
