The money will go towards the charity’s summer lunch program for vulnerable youths.

“What are you going to do with healthy food if you don’t know how to cook,” said Dana Folkersen, the REACH Executive Director. “We teach kids as young as preschoolers, all the way up how to cook so that they’re able to take all that healthy fresh food and make meals with it.”
