| Family and Consumer Sciences Assistant Area Agent Angell Jordan assisted the Boys & Girls Club of Acadiana during a grab and go meal distribution for youth on April 30. |
Angell aided the organization in
distributing hundreds of boxes of meals to youth within the Opelousas
community. The boxes contained meals for seven days, which included breakfast
and lunch.
“Many kids are not eating all
three meals due to school closures but the administration team at the Boys
& Girls Club is trying to make sure that no kid goes hungry while out of
school,” said Jordan.
The grab and go meal distributions
will continue for several weeks and Jordan said she will continue to
participate with this effort.
The Boys and Girls Club of
Acadiana is located at 814 E. Laurent Street in Opelousas, La. For information
