WHAT:
On Thursday, October 15, 2020, Nebraska Pork Producers will be bringing their mobile kitchen to the Open Door Mission Campus to prepare lunch for men, women and children experiencing homelessness. They will begin cooking the pork burgers around 9:00 a.m. in the Garland Thompson Men’s Center parking lot. The pork burgers will then be served for lunch inside the Garland Thompson Men’s Center and Lydia House.
“What a special treat for our guests to enjoy a delicious pork burger for lunch,” says Amy Harvey, Chief Community Relations Officer. “This is a challenging time for our guests experiencing homelessness, especially right now with the pandemic, so it’s nice to have people in our community show them that someone does care.”
