Yesterday, we had a cluster meeting where au pairs gave their time to prepare sandwiches for the homeless.\u00a0 We were joined by a few moms and cub scouts from Pack 403.\u00a0 Thank you to Holy Trinity Episcopal Church for allowing us to use the parish hall.\u00a0 Together, we were able to make almost 600 sandwiches!!!<\/span><\/strong> These sandwiches are going to the DC Central Kitchen to feed homeless people in Washington, DC.<\/p>\n

I want to thank everyone who showed up, brought bread, made sandwiches and helped us surpass my initial goal of 400 sandwiches.<\/p>\n

Here are a few photos.<\/p>\n
