If you like stories of good people doing good things in our community, this is the episode for you. On this episode of That’s Rad, a podcast presented by the Littleton Food Co-op, host Anastasia sets out to find groups in our community “cooperating outside the lines.” In other words, groups of people cooperating together for a greater purpose, without actually being structured as a co-op. But what that truly means is this is an episode filled with stories of good people doing good things in our communities. First, she speaks with Eric, Bonnie, and Chuck of Veterans 2 Veterans Group, a Littleton-based non-profit providing direct aid to Veterans, first responders, and their families. Then, she sits down with Mark and Veronika, organizers of last summer’s Littleton Community Cookouts. From both conversations you’ll learn more about how local folks are reaching across social boundaries to engage others, forming relationships greater than “the helpers” and “those being helped.” The people featured in this episode exemplify community care, and you won’t be able to finish the episode without a smile on your face.
