Parenting 101… 🤣

It’s good enough… 😒

Our vision is simple: when we care for our families, we strengthen our entire community.

This season, we’re coming together to make sure no parent feels alone and every child has access to essentials including items like formula, diapers, wipes, baby clothes, toddler snacks, and unwrapped toys for kids 12 and under.

✨ Families will receive these items during our Community Baby, Family & Toy Drive and we’d love for you to be part of it!

Here’s how you can help:
🤝 Share this post to spread the word
🎁 Donate to support local families
🏡 Sign up to volunteer or host a table

Together, we can make this season a little brighter for every family. 🌿💕

Sharing just in case you know someone who could benefit… please tell someone who might need to know.

We’re not here to talk politics — we’re here to talk people. Because no child should ever have to go hungry 🧡💙

Beginning November 1st, 2025, we’ll be offering one free kids burrito or taco (takeout only) per child, no questions asked, until SNAP benefits are restored

Just mention “SNAP Kids Meal” when you order

If you’re in a position to give back, you can purchase a kids meal to pay it forward and help us feed another family. Every small act of kindness makes a big difference ‼️

As a small, family-owned business, we’re incredibly grateful for the community that’s supported us — and we’re committed to giving that same support right back. Together, we can make sure no child goes without a warm meal 🌯🧡🌮💙

Sharing because I think it’s worth telling a friend to tell a friend.

Hi Everyone,
So happy to see such an amazing response ❤️

As we got to know about the SNAP benfits will be ending from Nov 1st than we decided to do a post about this to support our communtiy in difficult time.

There was no thought or intenion of getting any type of donations but after getting 100's of messages and comments. we decided to created a section on our ordering website for anyone who wants us to support. can donate by PRE-PURCHASING MEALS FOR KIDS.

We are not a big chain but will do our best whatever we can as a small business according to our capacity but any donations towards this will definitely helps us to do more....
GOD BLESS
