One of our "Oprah's Big Give" families is being "pampered."
Today, Meghan Olson picked out new cookware, donated by Kevin Litscher of Pampered Chef.
Last week, Kevin was watching as we raised money for Oprah's Big Give.
He saw an interview with Meghan in her kitchen and knew he could do something to help.
"I had a daughter that I lost in a car accident a few years ago and I just see this as a way of reaching out to young ladies in the community," Litscher said.
Megan has her choice of gadgets, dishes, and cookware.
There's still time to donate money or volunteer to help five needy families in Topeka. Just tap here.
