ELEMENTARY NEWS
This summer 'Go Pantry' worked in collaboration with Yealey Elementary's Family Resource Center (FRC) Program to provide nutritional food to families. Once a week, prepared boxes, could be picked up at the Family Resource Center. All preparation was done weekly by a group of volunteers from Go Pantry. This service was well received and all families were invited to a picnic to celebrate the end of the summer break and all children received a backpack filled with school supplies. Principal Linda Black said, "This group of people have been amazing all summer. Katie Hiatt,one of the team members and a teacher at Yealey, is an inspiration to all of our staff. Her willingness to go above and beyond to remove all barriers for our kids and their families is truly inspiring."
