As we handed out fresh fruit to the kids in front of our new mobile market, I had a few approach me on the side and ask to see inside because they had no fruits or vegetables at home. My response was of course, letβs go!! When they hopped on the bus they smiled and their vulnerability went awayβ-they felt safe, dignified and supported in a time of need. π
With so many resources going to food insecurityβI know we can do better!
Huge shout out to family, my team (Peter Contardo and Amy Laffey) and my dear friend Bola Adeshina for leading us in The Peach Workout! Thank you Eunique Byrd and Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Tampa Bay for hosting us and all you do for these children dailyπ
