The program officially launched at the beginning of the 2017 school year. In 2018, the program moved from its original home in the Family Life Center kitchen of First Baptist to space provided by a local warehouse. As of December 2020, Second Helpings has distributed over 170,000 meals throughout Angelina County. Aurelia and the volunteers will tell you, however, that the key ingredient to the organization’s success is the prayer that covers all their efforts and the love exhibited in everything they do. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f4fc22bd7cf57023d0d3aa2/1607744182442-62WTLZI023QFQNU0H3J6/Second+Helpings-+High+School2.jpg Second Helpings - Origins A desire to serve others, especially through feeding the hungry, is a part of the DNA of Second Helpings founder, Aurelia Newton. When Aurelia and her husband, Mark, arrived in Lufkin to pastor Lufkin’s First Baptist Church, she soon recognized the level of food insecurity in the area. She had already started a successful backpack buddy program in their last community, and she began dreaming of beginning something similar in Lufkin. A 2017 change in Texas law helped shape her dream into the program that is Second Helpings today. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f4fc22bd7cf57023d0d3aa2/1606018392972-KJXKMGYIVSJTPTF6UTBK/Volunteer.jpg Second Helpings https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f4fc22bd7cf57023d0d3aa2/1606018471917-1YD99RU2WQQB44MEM3JV/Fridge.jpg Second Helpings https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f4fc22bd7cf57023d0d3aa2/1606018198084-J9B3UJ75B8MDFXCHA13K/School.jpg Second Helpings https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f4fc22bd7cf57023d0d3aa2/1605669433672-H2170DSWBEYH6FJ2AEW4/Giving+Icon+copy.jpg Second Helpings https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f4fc22bd7cf57023d0d3aa2/1607745403856-B4A3YG3CD6KC8MJ663JL/IMG_2079.jpeg Second Helpings Volunteers (L:R Jule Fenley and Demetress Harrell) from Second Helpings of Angelina County in Lufkin High School cafeteria kitchen. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f4fc22bd7cf57023d0d3aa2/1607745417930-II2R3IM6U2TT53S2Z4V0/IMG_2081.jpeg Second Helpings Volunteers (L:R Jule Fenley, Aurelia Newton, and Demetress Harrell) from Second Helpings of Angelina County with the cafeteria staff at Lufkin High School. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f4fc22bd7cf57023d0d3aa2/1607748202552-9SJ6JS44R8JT9ZQR8W6K/IMG_2091+3.jpg Second Helpings Volunteers (L:R Jule Fenley, Aurelia Newton, and Demetress Harrell) from Second Helpings of Angelina County delivering to The Salvation Army of Lufkin https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f4fc22bd7cf57023d0d3aa2/1607747349358-MSPJPQ4TVQUW30FJ1QMX/Screen+Shot+2020-11-21+at+6.43.47+PM.png Second Helpings Volunteers (L:R Becca Chance, Glenda King, Aurelia Newton, Karen Foley, Lisa Hurst, Sheila Telford, Melissa Abeldt) from Second Helpings of Angelina County.

Every Friday, over 150 students count on Second Sacks deliveries. These sacks are imperative to providing food to sustain students through the weekend and positively impact academic performance. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f4fc22bd7cf57023d0d3aa2/1606012441585-4V7ZXOLPT2LNXPYI0FGC/2nd+helpings+.jpg About - Second Helpings. Second Helpings saw a need in the community- food insecurity, especially in children, and we have worked to close the gap. Every week that school is in session, our Second Helping volunteers go into Lufkin ISD cafeterias and collect unserved food, packaged by the lunch servers, and deliver the food to our Second Helpings hub for distribution. The food is divided and delivered by our volunteers to our community partners based on daily need.
