I have more information to be able to clarify for some people.

I have spent all day cooking and I will spend the next several days doing the same. Stacy, the beautiful soul who started all of this, was hospitalized today from an infection from an emergency surgery she had this past week and I'm hoping that despite her stubbornness, that she will allow me to take on her families as well. Due to her epilepsy and stroke last month and due to my accident, neither of us drive. Building Up Lives also does not have the resources or people to leave, so we are compiling a list of those that need delivery. *JulieAnn has informed me that she wants to start deliveries for families who need both meals and things on the 23rd. *

My car is in jurupa Valley and I need to get the groceries out of the back, so finding a ride to do that is definitely on the priority list, but please know that we are all working so hard to ensure everyone gets what they need. Any left over food will be brought to building up lives on Christmas day for their potluck.

Despite making as much food as I already have, more will be coming in tomorrow and the next day and the next. What's most needed material wise are aluminum trays to cook and deliver meals in.

People have asked the specific location of deliveries in the IE and the answer is that they're all over. We have a lot in moreno valley but we also have some in San Bernardino, Colton, Perris, Riverside, and Corona. Every day, more people ask to be added.

Our plan is to do convenient routes for people which basically just means that we will give you deliveries that are all in one area and I'll try to ensure they put you in the direction of getting back to where you're from. How many stops you do entirely depends on you. You can tell us that you only want to do 1 delivery and we will still be endlessly grateful because it's one less person who may go without. You can get a route and decide to come back for another or you can go home. This is all voluntary. You get to choose how much you work.

And, I know that JulieAnn needs volunteers at BULF currently more than ever, so if you can even go volunteer for an hour, that would be so helpful. I also personally need some volunteers in my kitchen over the next few days.

We are located in moreno valley but we service anyone who contacts us. If you know someone who is food insecure this Christmas, PLEASE put them in contact with me. If you or your family is food insecure, PLEASE contact me. And if you'd just like to buy a plate or two to support a disabled volunteer for all the work I'm putting into making all the food I am and have, then you can do that too! I'm going to be taking on meals until the 26th (the 24th will be hard for me to swing personally bc Christmas is hosted at my house). Please remember that I follow all health and safety guidelines.

For those who want to volunteer at BULF, please visit the shop on sunnymead Blvd in moreno valley or text CHRISTMAS to 951-550-5466.
