Each care package would feature snacks and small meals inside of a tupperware soup bowl.

She hoped to get one hundred packages sponsored.

That happened in just two days.

In just one week crays was able to get 135 packages sponsored.

The community donated for the packages and crays and her daughter put them together.

This week the care packages were given out.

But now more than ever it's like, now they're being recognized for all their hard work and they know that their community is behind them."
