This year, the number of families requesting assistance has grown slightly, but thanks to your contribution, we were able to make an even greater impact. Your donation directly supported 12 local families, providing them with food and comfort during a time when it is needed most.\r\n\r\nThrough this project, our Personal Finance students were able to shop for, assemble, and serve meals for 16 families out of the 84 who reached out for help. Beyond budgeting and managing money, this experience taught our students the deeper value of giving time, compassion, and care to others. They learned that real generosity extends far beyond finances—it's about making a meaningful difference in someone's life.\r\n\r\nYour partnership helped turn this lesson into something truly powerful and lasting.
