We are partnering with the school district to ensure this information gets out to parents - we'll use the same communication channels effectively used by the district to inform parents.

During this difficult time, our utmost priority remains the safety and well-being of the students and volunteers. We ask that all individuals maintain a social distance while waiting in line for their meals. Meals will not be consumed on site. 

Partners involved in this effort include Cascade Hills, Columbus Parks and Recreation, Evangel Temple, Ferst Readers, First Baptist Church, Girls Inc, Greater Peace Baptist, Open Door, Pierce Chapel, Salvation Army, St. Luke and YMCA.
