Every month students from Fort Erie Secondary School prepare a meal for the “feed the hungry program” sponsored by St. Paul’s parish. Their workplace improved greatly with the installation of a new exhaust system in the kitchen, which was financed by a $19,000 grant from United Way. Posing with the Fort Erie Secondary School students as they prepare the monthly meal are (left) Chef A. Keyvani, Executive Director of the Niagara Falls- Fort Erie United Way, the Reverend Deacon Rod McDowell (second from right) and Carol Stewart- Kirby (right).
