'Those kids are waiting on me.' A Missouri mom of six gives out more than 100 lunches every day to kids in her neighborhood.

Every school day around 2:30 in the afternoon, a familiar sight pops up on a street in a St. Louis neighborhood.And every afternoon, for the next three hours, kids from Anderson’s neighborhood run from the school bus to her home to get something to eat.

She started handing out food after noticing that friends of her kids were often hungry when they were over at her house. She also frequently saw kids asking for change outside a nearby gas station and wanted to help. "I tell them, 'No, we don’t need an emergency room visit tonight,' and they laugh," she said."I love them."

Anderson's kids and their friends help her pack the lunches. She's been known to also serve an on-the-go breakfast to kids who are running late for the school bus in the morning.

LeeHolly81 If everyone who had a little to spare did this, just think!!!

Ylnd2M What a nice thing to do.

This is overwhelming to see that she shares what she can with these children, she truly is an ANGEL May the Lord bless her with much more.. she will be in my prayers

What a wonderful lady! Sad that there are so many kids going without the basics of a pb & j sandwich 😔 Where has this country gone wrong?

This is not hear warming to me this is sick. While this lady's heart is as big as Montana, she should not have to do this. No kid should EVER be hungry in this country.

I love this lady, I'm serious😘

God bless you !!

ANGELAB0518 She is such an amazing extraordinary person’ Thanks to NEWS to for recognizing her and her work true true hero!!

This are the Americans the world needs to know..

There are hungry kids in the WEALTHIEST country in the world...

Ms. Anderson,, You are an American Hero !!!!May God hold you close !!!

Greedy kids getting extra food!? This is not humanity because there are no “starving to death” kids in USA. I know and have witnessed the difference. Please do not confuse 1st world inconveniences with 3rd world problems. Warm story but not a real reflection of children in 🇺🇸

True Angel!

What a beautiful human being!

Can we have this lady information, does she have social media

Mamme , this is definitely your ministry

What she is doing is heartwarming but that food looks highly processed. We have so many issues in our community one being hunger and two food deserts.

All these great people make trump look like shit.🤣🤣🤣

This is amazing!

BeyondThaGlory And I'm guessing sis is couponing or at least I hope so. This is dope af and I support 1000%.

What a wonderful woman. Smh. No child should go hungry. All children should be getting free lunches at school.

Good for you mamma, I hope your example be followed, so many children go to school with nothing to eat, God bless you

Love this MOM, a great lady with a big heart 😃❤

That is 300 a day at 300 a lunch and a e 20 day work month ~6000 a month very hard to afford after taxes. Sense some hyperbole

This is the pure beauty of black mothers.

RealRonHoward JeffBezos JeffBezos ?

Amazing women,God Bless her

wow a real Hero.

This really isn't a feel good story. This tells me how terrible the system is in America, and the severe disadvantage of African Americans due to centuries of oppression.

The fact that she has to do this in the richest country in the world says nothing good about this country.

WOW! We need more of this in the World! Children should not be without! Bless her for this! foodforchildren

Just beautiful

RealRonHoward This. While GOP gun nuts like Sarah Sanders are whining about having the assault (killing machines) rifles taken away. Which is more Jesus-like?

DsOchoa School lunches should be free to everyone. My kids are grown, but I’d gladly pay a little more in taxes for this to happen & maybe we can skip the marble entryway next time we remodel our high school.

G8trz4ever Ma'am, you are a beautiful human being!!

Oh! Thank you ... 💖

rmgmtp These comments are sick...I’m happy these kids have her but this isn’t a warm and fuzzy story. We live in the wealthiest nation and kids go hungry.

And the Lord will provide you a way to do this. Thank you! God bless you!

What a lovely person.

*sniff* THIS woman is why I want America back and these right wing thieves and killers out of our govt. THIS is the kind of people I grew up around when I was very young. The kind of people I want more kids to know. God bless her.

Good work be that. Keep it up 👆

Yes! NOW there's a GoFundMe I can support.

Hmmmm kind hearted woman and may the good Lord continue to bless, guide, provide and protect her and family

Lame attempts at making up for airing that burning face ad, aren’t you, ?

TheEllenShow

An Angel

We need more Champales in this country- more compassion/empathy, less hate and division.

Can someone make sure she gets my big 'Thank You' from Texas for what she has been doing? She should be nominated for a CNN Hero, too. That's amazing she's been doing it for 5 years!

what a big heart she has-- the need is so big in her neighborhood some church or civic group should step up and help this lady

WORLD...commend this woman. lunchbox

An Angel! 🙏🏻

Champale Anderson said 'I didn't have a great childhood; It was pretty rough,' 'That made me not want any other kid to go through that.'. Champale took the positive road when others take the negative one, becoming criminals. God Bless her for what she does for the children.

God bless her! So sweet!

This woman is a beautiful hero! ❤️❤️❤️

An angel!

And the parents of these other kids are doing......nothing to feed their own kids. Koodoos to this Mother.

I knew a woman who did the same thing in my town. The thing she did not realized is how much those kids remembered her , the impact was so real and last forever. When she died , we were hundreds attending her funeral and some of us decided to do the same for other kids.

Sharing is caring!!! Thanks Mom!!

Mom of the year candidate....

Bless her heart ❤️

I want a bag ..

She is a sweet, loving, honorable woman.

God bless her.

Great job! City will shut her down for not having the proper permits.

That is so wonderful that this woman has take it upon herself to feed the young children may God bless her we need to do that and all communities and don't wait for the government to do anything this is wonderful

LindsayACross 😭 love this

Bless her heart...... I would love to know where the monthly food stamp groceries are going since these children are still hungry.

Another Shero! In the neighborhood.

Bless your heart!!❤️❤️

Five Two Essential Kitchen Towels, 100% Cotton, Absorbent, French Windowpane ChecksWe’ve got a great new recipe for making just about anything—and making it better. So when you told us what we needed to do to give the basic kitchen towel a Five Two upgrade, we got right to it. 36,000 votes from our community said it all: Some of you asked for towels that were highly absorbent and lint-free. Others wanted a design that was both smart and good looking. And still others weighed in, asking for a thicker weave that sops up liquids and handles hot pots easily. With our own design expertise guiding the process, we came up with not one, but two styles—a dynamic duo of complementary weaves that conquer every task you set before them: A quick-drying flour-sack design: Ideal for glass-drying and crumb-swiping, this superstar leaves no lint behind and can be used for dish duty as well as covering bread dough while it rises. It also serves as a mixing-bowl stabilizer (just dampen it, set your bowl on top, and whisk away). Comes in a pack of 4. An ultra-absorbent utility towel: Tailor-made for stopping spills, this plush and extra-durable design can also cameo as an oven mitt or trivet in a pinch (or use it as a nest for warm rolls or fresh corn on the cob). Comes in a pack of 2. Both towels are sized just-right in a 20'x 30' dimension that got the most votes from our community. They’re also crafted in prewashed cotton, so they’re the most absorbent, best-performing towels around. Each features a handy hanging loop—this is a feature on many a kitchen towel, sure, but we scooched ours 15” over so it won’t sag on your counters or floors. With a design inspired by classic French windowpane checks, all sets include two different but complementary patterns—which is oh-so-helpful if you’d like to give each towel a specific task. (Mop up spills with one, dry dishes with the other: Instantly streamline your life). Together, we’re making deliciously thoughtful products for every part of your life, and every room of your house.
