We are back at the NCSM&L this week. There's an update on the soup fundraiser below.
Also, please get back to me by next week if you were reaching out to a group as part of our planning for the District grant.
Go forth and do great things!

Mira Gibbons describes herself as "a 14-year-old girl in Cedar Rapids, Iowa trying to change the world one song at a time." She's performed more than 350 free concerts at senior living centers, libraries, fundraisers, and schools. Mira started playing violin when she was 10-years-old and will talk to us about her two initiatives STYLE and GRACE.
Our hearty team of volunteers packed more than 450 "backpack" bags in one hour! These bags are sent home with Cedar Rapids students to make sure they have something to eat when school isn't in session. HACAP's programs help strengthen our community and ensures families have the resources they need to thrive.
