At Eggroll Queen, we believe in sharing what we have with those in need. At the end of each day, when we have extra food left over, we make it a point to ensure it doesn’t go to waste. Our freshly made egg rolls and fried rice are packed up and delivered to local homeless shelters. It’s important to us that the food we create not only brings joy to our customers but also helps those who are going through tough times. Knowing that our meals provide nourishment to someone who might otherwise go hungry makes our work feel even more meaningful.

We are stronger together.

I will wrap up the month of February by saying Eggroll Queen did accomplish a lot because of the support from our communities. That said, I will outlined what we accomplished together for the month of February 2016.

Saint Paul Neighborhood Honor Roll Volunteer Award Night – January 29, 2016Highlights During 2015, District Councils worked with more than 2,000 volunteers on behalf of Saint Paul neighborhoods, including more than 1,000 board and committee members.

On July 19, 2015, Soua Yang and Fue Vang (Modern Woodman of America) organized a team of East Side St. Paul community members to help clean up a couple of major streets.  The goal was to clean up Maryland, Payne, and Arcade; however, due to the short time scheduled (1:00 pm- 4:30 pm), the volunteers were only able to cover Payne Avenue from Mennehaha to Larpeneur and Arcade Street from Minnehaha to Maryland.

Every week, we pick a park or two to do community clean-up.  At the park, we ask kids to help picked up garbage around the area so that it is clean and safe for everyone to play.

City-wide Community Clean-ups are one-day events which allow residents to discard just about anything. District Councils work in a partnership with the city to bring together haulers and vendors alike. They meet in one central location and make efforts to reuse or recycle resident’s old or unwanted items for less of a cost than you would incur paying a garbage hauler to take it all away. In 2015, there will be six clean-ups throughout the year which will be open to all St. Paul residents.

Hours after Shannon Marie Morrison’s death, allegedly at the hands of her boyfriend Gregory Rainer, Mai Vang, 35, had mobilized many on St. Paul’s East Side for a fundraiser for Morrison’s family. Mai Vang heard that the Morrison family needed help to pay funeral expenses. Within three days, she and Jennifer Swanson, another East Side resident, recruited more than 30 volunteers for a spaghetti dinner benefit Monday evening.
