The Foundation for Edmonds School District has received a $20,000 donation from Mercedes-Benz of Lynnwood to support the foundation’s Nourishing Network and other programs.

Through its Nourishing Network, the foundation delivered more than 16,600 weekend meal kits to ensure children didn’t go hungry over the weekends. During the summer months, the program served 800 lunch meals each week, providing consistent nutrition when school was out of session. Families also received critical support through monthly pop-up pantries. Overall, the program distributed over 123,000 pounds of food, ensuring that no family in need was left behind.
