Our Elder's organic vegetable stand was emptied from yesterday's batch.

We are so grateful that our community is making use of the fresh, organic produce from our elders' garden. ❤️

Our team has replenished the bins with another fresh harvest! Please help us by sharing this post and spreading the word so even more families can put healthy, fresh food on their tables.
We just put out more Zucchini, green beans, cucumber (dib hmoob), and romaine lettuce.

One week ago, the tornado changed the lives of many families in our community.

Since then, NEW HMong volunteers and community partners have come together with urgency and compassion - delivering meals, translating for HMong families, helping distribute donated items, and cleaning up neighborhoods so families could focus on their next steps.

Many of you have reached out asking how you can help.

As the immediate cleanup continues, families are entering the long road of recovery. Your support allows us to continue providing culturally relevant resources that bring comfort, stability, and care as families rebuild.

Every gift helps. Whether you're able to give $10, $25, $50, or whatever feels right, your generosity makes a difference!

Your donation helps provide:
• HMong hot meals and culturally familiar supplies
• Transportation and basic needs for affected families
• Community-centered healing and recovery support

Thank you for standing with our community. Together, we can ensure families continue to receive the support, dignity, and care they need as they heal and rebuild.

🏐Update: Volleyball Camp Tonight 🏐

We have a quick update regarding tonight's volleyball camp session. Due to the forecasted rain later today, we will be holding camp in the gym at Zion Lutheran Church. We've also sent emails with location details and reminders.

Thank you and see everyone tonight!

Recovery is only just beginning, and we are wholeheartedly continuing our efforts to support our community and those most impacted by the tornado!

Yesterday, we collaborated with Mercy Chefs to serve another round of relief meals to families and volunteers. We are incredibly grateful for their partnership and the joy they brought as we worked together to support those who need it most.

We remain deeply committed to showing up for our community every step of the way. As we rebuild, we’re excited to grow new partnerships, strengthen existing ones, and continue loving on our neighbors with everything we’ve got 🫶
