U District church feeds and gives supplies to families in need

Just like Charlie needed his golden ticket to get into the chocolate factory, families in need had to have a pink ticket to receive a box of goodies from the Feed The Children truck on April 10. The Word Church at 3852 Park Avenue collaborated with Serving Up Hope, a non-profit organization who ran a tennis tournament as a charity event. The donations helped raised funds to sponsor a food truck delivered to the church. Pastor Aaron Litzsey and his supporters gave out 4 hundred tickets to impoverished families on two separate occasions. Here is a video of Pastor Aaron Litzsey and Alex Batts.
