Once a quarter, Plano West helps provide nutritious lunches to those in Plano who are currently experiencing homelessness and food insecurity. We provided 54 lunches with a hearty meat & cheese sandwich, along with bars, fruit, nuts and waters to folks who are truly grateful.
We are able to do this with the help of the non-profit Collin County Assistance Center who provides the back part of their parking lot, and to the non-profit Streetside Showers organization providing dignity through free showers, along with the add-ons from other organizations like churches and Rotary to provide the additional value of free clothing, free reader glasses and free lunches.
Weekly lunch Sign-ups are coordinated by Christ United Methodist Church to make sure that lunches are provided every Wednesday in East Plano, through their Sandwich Blessings serving opportunity.
Thanks to all who signed up on our Rotary sign-up for this opportunity to provide lunches as well as additional needed toiletry items, like toothpaste & foot powder!
