It's time for another at-home project! Sunbeam Kids families are invited to make bag lunches for the Street Angels Milwaukee Outreach. This project has been extremely popular both as an at-home project and an in-person project.
Street Angels Milwaukee Outreach is a small but mighty group of individuals who conduct street outreach for the homeless three nights per week, Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday. In addition to a hot meal, the group provides friends with a "lunch for later". Our homeless friends really seem to enjoy the brown bag lunches. Sunbeam Kids has signed up to provide lunches on Sunday, June 5th.
Each lunch should contain the following:
- Sandwich (pb&j or lunchmeat, no condiments please)
- Soft fruit such as tangerines, bananas, plums, etc. (Fruit cups w/a spoon are good too)
- Chewy granola or protein bar
- Individual bag of chips
- Sweet treats! Examples: pre-packaged brownies, pudding, cookies, etc.
- Water flavor packet for bottled water drinks
- String cheese, beef sticks, etc.
Other suggestions could be pre-packaged containers of fresh veggies w/dip, pudding cups, applesauce, crackers, trail mix, etc.
With the current COVID-19 situation, Street Angels asks that bag lunches are prepared in a clean environment using social distance precautions. When dropping off bag lunches on the night of outreach, please drop off in bags or boxes that you will not need returned. To keep with social distance, we ask that you place the lunches by one of our buses, which our team will place on the bus.
Each family who registers will be asked to supply the contents for and assemble 8 bag lunches for the Street Angels program. Bag lunches MUST be delivered to Street Angels at 5:45pm on the day of outreach, Sunday, June 5th. Their location is 1236 South Layton Blvd, in the rear parking lot. There is no local drop off option for this project.
