H&M Catering earns YMCA Volunteer of the Year Award
Each year, the Gaston County Family YMCA honors an individual dedicated to serving the community with its Volunteer of the Year Award.
In 2020 this award is being given to Hans and Megan Kanal from H&M Catering, located in Mount Holly, for their tireless work combating hunger during the COVID-19 shutdown.
One in five children in North Carolina struggle with food insecurity, which can be an anxiety-provoking issue for kids who struggle with hunger and don’t have access to free and reduced lunch at school.
In addition to children, COVID-19 has impacted seniors, many of whom were on waiting lists to receive home deliveries.
