Northwestern students deliver from Campus Kitchen to needy
Elizabeth Hubbard and her two children know that the meals they deliver to residents at a low-income apartment in Evanston are appreciated, but they recently discovered their visits mean much, much more.
"Mom, look," daughter Frances, 8, whispered during a stop at a woman's apartment. She noticed that every Valentine's Day card that she and her brother, Wyatt, 6, had drawn for residents during four years of delivering meals was displayed on the refrigerator.
"It's been a really rewarding thing for all of us," said Hubbard, whose mother also helps make the food runs for the Campus Kitchens Project at Northwestern University, which started in 2003. "We really enjoy the continuity of going to the same place. [The residents] enjoy watching the kids get bigger."
The project at Northwestern is one of the Chicago-area organizations supported by Chicago Tribune/WGN-TV Holiday Giving, a campaign of Chicago Tribune Charities, a McCormick Foundation Fund.
