Hope everyone’s enjoying some family time, some friend time or some quiet time today. Here’s a note from Lisa about what the folks up at the KapKa School are up to:
More than 20 needy seniors will enjoy a homemade Thanksgiving dinner thanks to the hard work of the students at KapKa Cooperative School, located just south of Woodland Park Zoo. For the past week, kids from Kindergarten to 4th grade have been scaling up Thanksgiving recipes, grocery shopping, cooking and prepping food that they’ll deliver to low-income seniors in north Seattle. This much-anticipated annual event gives the kids a chance to do some math, follow directions and strengthen other academic skills. But more than that, it’s a great opportunity for the students to give back to the community and open their hearts to people who might be otherwise forgotten and overlooked during the holidays.
