http://www.secondhelpings.org/blogIt\'s been an unusually quiet winter around Second Helpings, despite all of the banging and clanging of construction. With the volunteers working hard at the Fairgrounds, those of us back at the ranch are beginning to feel their absence more and more every day. Good thing it\'s almost time for them to come home!http://www.secondhelpings.org/blog/meanwhile-back-at-the-ranchTelamon Corporation was the winner of the November Give Gleefully video contest.

They chose Second Helpings.http://www.secondhelpings.org/blog/give-gleefullyTim Russell teaches fourth grade at Cedar Elementary in Avon. He also spends his summers volunteering in our kitchen. Tim reflects on acts of holiday generosity from his fourth graders.http://www.secondhelpings.org/blog/mr-russels-4th-grade-holiday-spiritPreparing 3,000 meals five days a week is tough work, but the staff and volunteers of our hunger relief kitchen do just that. Can you imagine what they could do with a bigger and better kitchen? We can!http://www.secondhelpings.org/blog/let-the-construction-commenceThe life of a child is easy: wake-up, play, nap, repeat. At least that\'s how it should be, right? Of the nearly 50 million Americans who struggle with hunger every day, over 16 million are children. At Second Helpings we work every day to feed some of those hungry kids right here in Indianapolis, because kids should have more important things to worry about than being hungry.http://www.secondhelpings.org/blog/act-like-a-kidRobbie Caldwell delivered a joyous and heartfelt thank you to all of her supporters at the graduation of Class #64 of our Culinary Job Training program.
