Rachel Nelson stood near a giant grill on the lawn of the Kenyan Community Seventh-day Adventist Church in Brooklyn Center on Saturday afternoon.
Cars stretched down N. Humboldt Avenue. About 80,000 pounds of donated food was stacked alongside 20,000 pounds of supplies: toothpaste, toilet paper, laundry detergent and feminine hygiene products. Another 46,000 pounds of food was about to arrive. Soon, the grill would be smoking with chicken legs and burgers. It was a festival of giving.
