The students started by picking up granola bars, apples and other items from East Village Organic on First Avenue...
Ali Sahin, the owner of C&B cafe on Seventh Street, donated the bread and other sandwich supplies. He also came to the school on the corner of Fifth Street to help the students assemble the sandwiches and create the meals to distribute...
In total, the students created and distributed 50 meals to unhoused people in the Park with the assistance of the school staff...
Thank you to Owen Schiller for the photos.

These kids are awesome! Kudos to the school staff who helped initiate this outreach effort and to the deli owner who donated food. I love our little community and feel so proud. If we all pay it forward, we all rise together. Excellent work, kids. Teach them that homelessness is not a crime or a character flaw, just a (hopefully) temporary condition.
Thank goodness for Ali and C&B - he's the heart of the community!
This is really wonderful. Thanks for this, Grieve. Ali is a great guy....so glad to have him and C&B in the neighborhood.
