The Princeton Rotary Club recently donated $500 to The King’s Kitchen of Caldwell County to support its Summer Feeding Program.
During the summer, several Rotarians volunteer to help provide meals for youth while school is out of session.
Lee Anne Gilkey from Kings Kitchen told WPKY’s News Edge that they have been incredibly blessed this year. She said they have managed to take every child off the waiting list and will feed 254 kids in our community over the next couple of weeks.

This amount, combined with previous contributions, provided sufficient funding to feed the 200 children on their list, ranging in age from 2 to 18.
The King’s Kitchen of Caldwell County accepts donations year-round for its Summer Feeding Program, which helps feed children ages 2 to 18 during the summer months when school is not in session.
