Western Academy Charter School’s Community Service Project will Help Feed Some of the 64,000 Children That Go to Bed Hungry
Royal Palm Beach, FL– Western Academy Charter School (WACS) is currently collecting peanut butter and jelly for the Palm Beach County Food Bank. This is the WACS Parent Teacher Committee’s first community service project of the school year. The first drop off last week weighed 144 pounds. The food drive continues through the month of September with the goal set to deliver 500 pounds.
There is a high need for the food banks at this time of year. All donations from this collection will stay here in Palm Beach County to help feed some of the 64,000 children that go to bed hungry each night. The children love PB&J and it is a great source of protein.
