Rep. Schmidt Donates Pay Raise to Press Play x 2 Shinn Inc

East St. Louis, IL…State Representative Kevin Schmidt (R-Millstadt) donated his pay raise for the month of November to Press Play x 2 Shinn, in the form of a food donation. He was more than happy to meet with Nancy Nixon and help her feed people in the community. Every month Rep. Schmidt donates his pay raise to a different local food pantry or non-profit organization throughout his district.

“Nancy and I are both passionate about fighting food insecurity,” said Schmidt. “It’s always a great feeling to work together with others in the community to help feed the hungry.”

Press Play x 2 Shinn Inc. was founded by Nancy Nixon of East St. Louis following the loss of her two children, Dez’Monn Nixon and Shontaves Thomas. Each Thanksgiving and Christmas, she and a group of volunteers prepare the meals in her home kitchen and distribute hot meals to those in need.

Food and household goods are a fundamental need for families in our communities. Whether you’re facing temporary hardship or ongoing challenges, there are resources available to help.
