We choose the Boys & Girl Club of San Marcos' Free Meals for Kids program. Their need jumped dramatically from 150 to over 400 meals per day due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Our club gave a $2,500 grant to support this program. This grant provided over 12,000 meals for kids in North County suffering from food insecurity.
