Thank you, ImOn!

💚 Sometimes kindness shows up unexpectedly.

Today, our friends at ImOn Communications had a catering order fall through, and instead of letting 250 delicious boxed meals go to waste, they turned disappointment into an opportunity to care for our community.

They delivered all 250 meals to us at the Cultivate Hope Corner Store and Groundswell Cafe so we can share them with our Pay It Forward guests and neighbors who need a meal.

These boxed lunches were catered by Peppercorn Food Company, so they're fresh, high-quality meals that will make a real difference for the people who receive them.

A huge thank you to ImOn Communications for thinking of us and acting so quickly. Your generosity means many folks in our community will enjoy a great meal when they need it most.

This is what community looks like.
