Grocery Gift Cards
During the months of March-September 2020, many school children who received free or reduced meals through the school system were not getting adequate nutrition because of campus closures, lack of parental availability to pick up lunches in the middle of a work day, or fear of contracting the virus while in line. Instead of distributing Acts of Love fresh groceries on the campus of American University of Health Sciences, we provided $50 Superior Grocers gifts cards to families struggling with food insecurity with help from local social services agencies and LBUSD school counselors that assisted in identifying families in need.
