WEBVTT CERTAINLY TENSE MOMENTS UNFOLDING ON THAT LOCAL STREET AND WE'LL STAY ON TOP OF IT FOR YOU TONIGHT. SO THIS NOW, REALLY AN INCREDIBLE CONCEPT. STUDENTS HELPING STUDENTS. PREPARING TODAY FOR ONE MASSIVE GIFT THAT'S ABOUT TO TRANSFORM HUNDREDS OF LIVES. YOU MAY CALL IT KIND OF A BLESSING IN A BACKPACK. SOME OF THE TOP ATHLETES IN OUR AREA ARE DELIVERING A SIMPLE MESSAGE IN A SIMPLE BAG. MIKE CABRERA IS USED TO GOING AFTER OPPONENTS IN THE ACC, BUT NOW THE PITT PANTHER LINE BACKER AND OTHER ATHLETES ARE TACKLING ANOTHER FIERCE FOE -- HUNGER. THEY DONATED MONEY, WENT SHOPPING FOR ALL THE SUPPLIES AND TONIGHT WE'RE ASSEMBLING THESE BAGS TO SEND HOME WITH STUDENTS OVER THE WEEKEND. THE TEAM WILL DELIVER THE FOOD TO KELLY AND TURNER ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS IN WILKINSBURG. MORE THAN 600 STUDENTS. IT'S PART OF THEIR CALL TO SERVE. WE RECENTLY WENT ON A MISSION TRIP TO HAITI AND ARE GOING AGAIN THIS APRIL. IT'S JUST GREAT TO GIVE BACK AND GIVE YOUR TIME, BECAUSE YOU CAN ALWAYS GIVE MORE. THAT'S WHAT I WAS THOUGHT GROWING UP. IT'S ALWAYS A GOOD FEELING. DEFINITELY EVERYONE WHO IS HERE IS VERY FORTUNATE TO BE HERE, BE AB ATHLETE AND SO BEING ABLE TO HELP OTHER PEOPLE RECEIVE FOOD JUST ON THE WEEKENDS IS A GREAT FEELING AND I'M GOING TO LEAVE HERE BEING ABLE TO SLEEP WELL. LINDA LAFFERTY STARTED BLESSINGS IN A BACKPACK THREE YEARS AGO AND IT'S GROWING. WE WERE FEEDING 410 CHILDREN, NOW WE'RE FEEDING 645. SO WE DO NEED MORE DONATIONS. WE ALWAYS NEED VOLUNTEERS. WE ALWAYS NEED THEM. LINDA AND HER VOLUNTEERS, MAKE SURE THE STUDENTS HAVE THE FOOD EVERY SINGLE WEEKEND WHEN SCHOOL IS IN SESSION.
