Millstone meals from last week - feeding the folks at Warm Hearth and MCEAP - and we dropped some at the community fridge in Blacksburg as well.

How sweet to have Ananya and her husband, Abhijit, come volunteer their time in celebration of Abhijit’s birthday. Ananya said they just wanted to do something to give back to the community to celebrate. What a special idea!

Thanks for volunteering at the kitchen- we couldn’t do it without the help of such fabulous volunteers. And happy birthday, Abhijit!
