The fourth Annual Wok with Friends to Fight Hunger will be taking place on Saturday, November 30th at 8:00 a.m.
A group of volunteers work together every year to provide Thanksgiving meals to those in need. This year, they already have over 700 meal requests and are in need of volunteers.
Friends Hoang Duong and Zach Smith, took two things they love, cooking and serving others and turned them into something that helps hundreds through out the community.
“Every year my wife and I cook a Thanksgiving meal for our family and then we always buy extra portions so that any left over’s we can box up and take downtown to feed the homeless,” explains Zach Smith, the organizer of the event.
“We had a giant cart of food and someone looked over at us and said, hey you must have a huge family? Yeah we do, but we also like to feed the homeless as well. It was a complete stranger and she ended up offering us $20 to help pitch in for that.”
That was the moment they realized how big of an impact they could make.
