RRAR CS Committee: Project Hope Update

Just wanted to send a quick "Thank you!" to everyone who was so kind as to pick up donations for Hope Charter Elementary School.

Here's a little update from Priscilla Erwin, the RRAR Member Services Associate who coordinated the project for us:All of the food and snacks collected during the Project Hope Food Drive were delivered yesterday to Hope Elementary. Melinda, our contact person, was in tears when she saw the donations and learned of the fact we were donating a $1000 to support their efforts. Thank you so much for your support and for encouraging others to participate.

At one point, the children were having a blast taking pictures so that’s why you’ll notice a picture of bananas. The pictures will be on the RRAR Facebook page by this afternoon.

Again, many thanks! Hope Elementary was extremely grateful for the support and stated the food and snacks collected will last them throughout the end of the school year!
Here is a link to the pictures if you'd like to check them out! We had a great time... the kids were a SUPER fun bunch!

What really amazed me was how much the school is able to do with what they have. They told us that the snacks provided will last them an entire year... a YEAR! Can you imagine?
