NEW ORLEANS — Every year 1,500 families in need on the Northshore are delivered meals on Christmas day.
COVID-19 has made things different this year, but the tradition continued.
“It just makes you feel good. This is the most rewarding thing I have ever done in my life,” said John Baldwin who co-founded the ‘Feeding the Needy’ program in 2002.“Life is all about making a difference and giving more than you take.”
