Information from last years- 15th Annual Huskers Helping the Homeless - October 8, 2011

Matt Talbot Kitchen & Outreach, Lincoln’s community kitchen and outreach center, teamied up with over 400 volunteers of all ages for the 15th Annual “Huskers Helping the Homeless,” the Best Defense against Hunger, on Saturday, October 8th prior to the Nebraska vs. Ohio State football game.

Volunteers could be found throughout downtown Lincoln three hours prior to the game, wearing “Huskers Helping the Homeless” T-shirts accepting donations on behalf of Matt Talbot Kitchen & Outreach, and in turn, the working poor, homeless and hungry men, women and children of our community.
