My sister Liz Avila had an idea...she called on us as a family to help donate towards a meal, snacks, water, goodies, gift cards for the families, our neighbors, that were hard hit by last week's tornado. She asked Beggars to donate pizza slices and collaborated with Melanie from The Lansing Journal and off we all went, walking the streets and knocking on doors. Little did she know that it would turn into something much bigger than one afternoon. Other Lansing businesses stepped up and here we were earlier today, on Day 5, and it was our turn ❤️ It was an honor to provide lunches for the families today. Thank you to our kids and staff for helping us get everything packed and ready and thank you to all of the volunteers that have continued to show support for our community.
