Mindy Kriegel, Owner of Mindy’s Meals in Grinnell, is working to take care of healthcare staff in the Grinnell community in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. Mindy decided to donate five $25 gift cards to Mayflower Community employees who provide support to local seniors.
Mindy talked with Mayflower about ways that she could “pay it forward.” Mindy’s specialty is delicious home cooked meals delivered to patrons in Grinnell, Brooklyn, and Newton.
As an employee benefit, Mayflower already provides one meal a day from our Open Dining menu. Therefore, Jacki Hicklin RN, Mayflower’s Assistant Director of Nursing/Infection Control Nurse suggested that Mindy’s Meals somehow benefit employees’ families.
Mindy, Jacki, and Hanna Snodgrass CMA developed the plan to donate the gift certificates to be used by employees with their families. Mindy delivered the certificates in Mindy’s bags and a drawing was held.
The five employees who will treat their families with a Mindy’s Meal are Sue Allen, Jason Bellinger, Joe Derby, Brittni Lillie, and Phyllis Turner.
Mindy’s Meals does the shopping, dicing, spicing, cooking, and baking for the meals she delivers weekly. Thank you, Mindy!
