Free groceries flood Cedar Rapids as First Lutheran hosts aid drive
Chaos turns the Cedar Rapids street by First Lutheran into a bustle of donors and recipients. About 1,600 boxes of free food and toiletries were packed for Feed The Children with 80 hours of planning. Local volunteers from Cedar Rapids and guests from Aurora New Jersey helped process roughly 1,500 cars per hour, each vehicle in about 12 seconds. Noah Becker, a seventh grader from Regis Middle School, said the group aims to give back amid widespread need.
