LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18) â Hundreds of Lexington families will not go hungry this Christmas, thanks to the Lexington Rescue Mission.
The Lexington Rescue Mission canceled its 18th Annual Christmas Dinner because of the pandemic. Rather than let people go hungry, organization leaders turned to hand-delivering more than 700 homemade meals to meet a growing need. People are just calling, and it s from all walks of life. People who are saying they just lost their job or got laid off and they re wondering if they can get a meal. Yes. It s fine, said volunteer coordinator Yvette Davis. You can do so much with just a meal. Reaching out to someone with a meal just shows how much you care.
