I run a small pantry in my front yard. I am trying to bring awareness daily. I just found out about this event 5 minutes ago! I was thrilled to find this attention being brought to the problem. I'm in Detroit. I am feeding around 75 families a week. As well as a few single homeless folks. Thank you for bringing awareness.
