We filled the bus today! 🚌 estimated at 1,200 + pounds of food donated. Then we unloaded the bus at the Salvation Army food pantry. A good day’s work!

On a sunny afternoon in early August, Atcharee Buntow was running an errand for her mom's Thai restaurant, topping off their supply of oyster sauce.

If you've been following the story about Alaska's AG retweeting Libs of TikTok because of the far-right's outrage over a disclaimer put on a Constitution distributed to ASD students - turns out ASD didn't put the disclaimer on - Hillsdale College did!!
