Coloma school district students found out this week just how much can be done when they work together as a team.More than a hundred students and community volunteers Thursday afternoon packed into the high school cafeteria and assembled 11,000 meals for the poor.
The Kids Against Hunger event was a partnership between the schools and the Freshwater Community Church, which meets at the district's middle school.
Debbie Ulrich, a district employee and church member, said a third of the meals that were prepared will stay local. The rest will be distributed both nationally and globally, she said.
In just three weeks the church raised the $2,800 for the food that went into the meals, said Pastor Jason Hitchcock.
