Grant Line Buzz

We disperse Blessings in a Backpack every Friday to over 160 students school wide. Blessings has changed the delivery from a pre-packaged bag to us having to sort and pack each bag. This is done every Friday. We are in need of some volunteers to pack and sort bags once a month. For the first time, it would be January 9 from 2:45 - 4:15. After this, it would be every Thursday from 1 - 2:30 pm. Sign up on this google form if you are available!
