OCEAN CITY -- Trying to feed the hungry can be difficult with an old kitchen, which is why Contractors For A Cause (CFAC) stepped up this fall to re-build the aged kitchen at Diakonia.
“It just goes to show the goodness of the community,” said Diakonia Executive Director Claudia Nagle.
CFAC are well established in Delaware but branched out into Maryland recently. The group quickly expressed an interest in working with Diakonia, which serves as a non-profit food pantry and transitional living area. CFAC followed up on that interest by proposing a three-phase construction project at the West Ocean City Diakonia location. A re-furbished kitchen was Phase 1 of that plan and Nagle didn’t mince words when describing the work CFAC did.
“It’s beautiful,” she said of the new kitchen, which features an extra door into the food pantry and a lot of stainless steel.

I'm surprised that Hall's restaurant didn't try to cut a deal with Ocean City government like they did with the last Hurricane.
Oh please 5:18-Get off the Hall's. Why is it beyond some's IQ that the Ocean City spending was out of control. It's as simple as just because there were a few years of a windfall due to overinflated real estate prices it didn't and should not have been spent-End of Story! It's this mentality why alot of people's homes are in foreclosure and people have no money saved for a rainy day.
It's called being responsible which I know is hard for alot to understand but finally the OC has a council that's responsible and knows the way it is and are not ignoring the financial cliff that would occur.
Now go and read some financial publications and educate yourself.
