A CC! partnership between Stevens High School and employees at the law firm of Lynn, Jackson, Shultz and Lebrun led to Thanksgiving dinner for four needy Rapid City families.

The employees donated food for the gift boxes.

"People felt good about giving," Lynn Hardman told the Rapid City Journal. Ms. Hardman and Catherine Mitchell, the CC! coordinators at the firm, go to peer leaders' meetings and helped deliver the boxes.

"It's really cool to see the smile on [the family members'] faces," said student Ashley Hanson.

"I'm really impressed with the kids," Ms. Mitchell said. "They're enthusiastic, and they want to give something back to the community."

In the spring of 2004, the same CC! partners staged "Operation Egg Drop," which gave goods to three families, such as baby furniture for a family with a new arrival.
