Thanks, Gail Thanksgiving meals thanks to your generous contributions! These packages included a Pratt, Jane, Jack, and Scott Boulware, Mary and turkey, potatoes, cornbread, vegetables, pumpkin pie, and much more! Donations were Doyle Douglas, and the rest of the crew, for setting up the gym at Bellevue High to package the meals! At the school dozens of volunteers helped package the food into totes, decorate bags, and load the packaged meals into U-Hauls. Volunteers eagerly packed in from all over to help this year, including the BETA Fraternity from the University of Wash- ington led by Daniel Pratt, the KAPPA Sorority led by Hanna Bauermiester, the Bellevue Football Team and community, National League for Young Men, the Eastlake High School Dance Team, Sacred Heart Parish, Metropolitan Market, Northwest University, Nordstrom, Microsoft, and Amazon! A special thank you as well to the Bellevue Jimmy John’s, who donated delicious sandwiches, chips, and cookies for volunteers to fuel up with as they worked! The extra space of the school, expert

After an unbelievable day of packaging, many of the team listed above along with other festive drivers from the community (Wendy Paisley, Lisa Mead, Judy Sidell, Patrick and Danya Hill) hit the road Monday morning with cars, trucks, trailers, and U-HAULS filled to capacity with hundreds of beautiful Thanksgiving meals ready to be delivered. The meals were hand-delivered to the offices of the 32 individual schools that we served in the Bellevue School District this year. The counselors received the totes as well as a little treat from us with a card expressing our profound gratitude to them for taking such good care of the future of the world; their students! They thoughtfully ensured that each beautiful tote would be given to the families in need that day. It was powerful and extremely touching to meet the counselors who care for these families and to see how relieved they were that these kids would be joyfully fed over the long holiday weekend break.

“It is always so touching to watch the feeling of relief and gratitude that overwhelms a parent’s face when they receive a meal,” one counselor said to me as she walked me to the car. “You and your team are so wonderful to do this.” Knowing that the Thanksgiving Food Drive can provide even one family with that gift is enough motivation to keep the tradition alive. Equally special is the opportuni- ty to watch the Bellevue community band together in a common goal!

The Wednesday before Thanksgiving brings a new energy as we load up one final U-HAUL and head north to our outreach school in Marysville that we adopted five years ago after they experienced a So thank you, Bellevue, and congratulations on another amazing year of serv- tragedy.
