“When I see the kids, the families, go through the line, it’s a bucket filler.”

That’s the feeling Josie Hoffman experiences each Monday afternoon as students and families from the community enter the east doors at Chaska High School to find tables and carts full of rescued food. The Monday Market is an opportunity for fresh, free food for all families.

The Monday Market was the recent recipient of the Chaska Human Rights Award.

"The Monday Market is a powerful example of school and community partnerships done right. This partnership allows us to meet students and families in a heightened moment of need with dignity and care, and support,” said Assistant Superintendent Nate Manaen.
