SANDRA LEE COOKS FOR AFTERSCHOOL
Food Network star Sandra Lee, in her role as Operation Frontline Ambassador, cooked up a healthy meal for a group of youth at St. Matthew's and St. Timothy's Neighborhood Center, an affiliate of Goddard Riverside. The kids, donned in aprons, learned how to make baked flaked chicken and sauteed spinach with tomatoes. To the left, one of the helpers serves the delicious and nutritious meal.

WHAT DOES COMMUNITY MEAN TO YOU?
Goddard Riverside recently sent out a survey to find out what community means to some of our friends and supporters. We selected that particular question because as a community center we were curious to hear what people have to say in their own words. The top three responses are posted on our website.
