Marty Lane grew up feeding people.

“In the words of Tupac, 'I didn’t choose this life; it chose me,'” she said.

Lane was born and raised in West Bloomington. Her grandfather ran a community garden behind Sunnyside Housing project, delivering food in pickle buckets gifted from Steak 'n Shake and hosting an annual Easter egg hunt.

Lane and her family, with a pack of helpers, have stocked their West Bloomington garage with food and other supplies since 1999. It’s called WYSE, an acronym for Westside Youth are Something Extraordinary.
