I thank God that No More Victims referred me to Kids’ Meals to help with the seven grandkids I inherited.  I’m so grateful to Kids’ Meals.  Not only did you supply me with food and very helpful resources, you truly lifted a heavy burden from me. 

--Gladys (a grandmother on a fixed income)

Ms. Ruth, I want to thank you for making my day.  I just came in to see if I could get my electricity turned back on.  You saw the two little kids with me and understood a separate need.  You explained the

Kids’ Meals program to us, and now we are on your delivery route.  When I return to work, I will remember you.  You were there for me in a time of darkness.  This shed a bright light.

--T.  Jones

Kids’ Meals, I just wanted to send you a thank-you card for feeding all of my kids during the summer.  When school is out and the teenagers, especially, are home, I spend my time performing many small jobs during the summer.  What a comfort it is to know that all of my kids are being fed.  Thanks for helping us out while we strive to find ways to make ends meet.

--John and Nancy

This delightful poem was mailed into the Kids' Meals office last week.  Just in time for the holidays.  A young Kids' Meals recipient was thoughful enough to share "heart-warming" feelings about our Executive Director, Ruth Burrell.  "I wish Santa Claus could be more like Miss Ruth" - below:

I use to ask

my mamma

why

we didn't have much food.

But

I don't ask her that no more

cause

I know Miss Ruth is gonna feed us.

We love Miss Ruth

cause

she don't

come just once a year

and

she don't turn us away

cause

we ain't got nuthin

and

she don't use

our neighborhood

as an excuse

not to help us.

I wish Santa Claus could be more like Miss Ruth.
