Owners Bryan and Sarah Forister and Maryville life skills teacher Jodi Blomme delivered Christmas baskets and presents to students on Wednesday in Granite City. Each basket contained food for a Christmas dinner.

"This time of year is hard for people, especially this year during COVID-19," said Bryan Forister. "I was fortunate that I did not have to shut down my business, and we are trying to give back to the community as much as we can."
