Primary School Partners with Meals on Wheels
Laurel Girls in Kindergarten-Grade 2 have embarked on a yearlong partnership with Meals On Wheels of Shaker Heights. Meals on Wheels delivers homemade meals several times each week to clients who are residents of Shaker, Beachwood, and University Heights, who do not have the ability to cook an entire meal for themselves due to a lack of mobility or resources.
After learning about Meals on Wheels during a recent assembly, Laurel K-2 girls enthusiastically raised their hands when asked about volunteering to help! Girls have been busy creating festive Thanksgiving centerpieces, placemats, and cards for next week's meal deliveries. Noomi, a Kindergartener, announced "making a card made me feel special and happy!" According to Eva (also a Kindergartener), when we help people, we feel "proud" and our hearts grow, too! The girls collectively hope the members of our surrounding community feel kindness and love.
