For five years, Champale Anderson has been stuffing brown lunch bags with peanut-butter sandwiches, fruit, cookies, vegetables, juice and other items.
."They get off the bus and they take off running [because] they never know what I will have in the bag. I switch up and have special treats for my special babies."
Anderson, a health care provider by profession, says that her free-lunch program has grown steadily, with more and more parents bringing their kids by. Acampaign she launched in August has already garnered more than $23,500, far superseding her $1,500 goal. She's looking to use the funding to expand Champ's Teardrops beyond her home into other St. Louis neighborhoods. Anderson says she was inspired by a quote from Mother Teresa:"I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples."
