As a culinary student at a school in downtown Salt Lake City, Jessica Lowe realized that instead of throwing out the food they prepared each week, she and her classmates could share it with the homeless people they often saw on their way to and from class. And that’s exactly what she started to do and continued to do for several weeks. After the class was finished, Jessica realized she wanted to keep serving food and meals, and her nonprofit 'A Little Too Kind' was born.
Now each Thursday, she serves 130 hot meals, hands out 100-120 sack lunches, and also delivers other necessities to her ‘homies’ as she calls them. She prepares the hot meals herself, and invites others to help with the sack lunches and other items.
I originally found Jessica on her Instagram account. The experiences she relates and her desire to share the love of God with all those she meets is so inspiring. Listen to this episode to hear more of her story and how she uses her experiences to share goodness in many ways.
