In months with a fifth Sunday, CBS provides a full dinner to fellow Columbians in need through the Loaves & Fishes program. We are serving Sunday, November 30th, and we need donations of food items as well as volunteers to set up, serve, and clean up.

Bring food to the Ashley Street Center, 1509 Ashley Street (use the door with the ramp), at 3:30 pm that day. Volunteers setting up/serving should also arrive by 3:30 pm. Clean-up crew should arrive by 5:30 pm.
 
We expect to serve about 85 people, and the need for volunteers to serve is especially critical.

 
Click here for the sign-up list. And thanks!

With questions, please contact Noah at heringmann@missouri.edu or Brent at brentdeelg@gmail.com.
