Another year has come to an end! What a successful year! We served more lunches than ever before…
3,755!!!
That’s over 1,000 more meals than last year! Looking at the numbers, that breaks down to 2,138 meals for children and 1,617 meals for adults!
First and foremost, thank you to our volunteers!! We could not do this without you!! It takes a lot to cook 50 pounds of ground beef, wash and sort 4 crates of grapes, bake pans and pans of French fries, shred 24 heads of lettuce, prepare 180 servings of watermelon, individually package cases of cookies, fill hundreds of individual cups of salsa, sour cream, syrup, and ranch, make hundreds of pancakes, assemble dozens of yogurt parfaits, plus many, many other jobs!! What our volunteers are able to do in less than two hours is amazing!
Of course, this is all possible thanks to the Trempealeau United Methodist Church. Their wonderful kitchen is the heart of our program and the support their church community gives us is overwhelming!
We are also very grateful for the partnerships we have with the Hunger Task Force of LaCrosse and the Dairy Pricing Association. We get a lot of our food from the Hunger Task Force. The milk coupons and dairy products we use are all paid for by the Dairy Pricing Association.
Thank you to our Trempealeau Lions Club for their continued support.
Thank you to the members of the community and the businesses who donated. Every little bit helps!
Thank you to the students and staff of Trempealeau Elementary who share the fresh vegetables and herbs from the school garden that we are able to offer our patrons.
Finally, thank you to our Trempealeau community!
So, that’s a wrap on 2026! See you in 2027!
