🍎📚 HELP US FILL THE SNACK BOXES — AND MAKE A BIGGER DIFFERENCE! ❤️
Our Essex Rotary Club is on a mission to make sure local elementary school students have access to snacks throughout the school day — and we need our community’s help!
We recently delivered boxes of donated snacks to five Essex/Westford schools, and the response from school staff was incredibly heartwarming. They shared just how much these donations mean to students who aren’t always able to bring snacks from home.
❤️ No child should have to worry about being hungry while trying to learn, and our teachers shouldn’t have to fill that gap on their own.
🏢 CALLING ALL LOCAL BUSINESSES!
Do you have an office, storefront, or business space where you could host a snack donation box?
We would LOVE to partner with more local businesses to expand our collection efforts throughout Essex, Essex Junction, Jericho, Underhill, and surrounding communities!
The more businesses that participate, the more families we can reach and the more students we can help.
🥨 We’re collecting these specific snacks:
* Nature Valley Oats & Honey Granola Bars
* Individual Bags of Pretzels
* Individual Bags of SkinnyPop Popcorn
* Applesauce Pouches
📍 Current donation locations:
* Kaitlyn Raymond State Farm — Upper Main St., Essex
* Northfield Savings Bank — Pearl St., Essex Junction
* Citizens Bank — Pearl St., Essex Junction
* Boxcar Bakery — Park St., Essex Junction
* Jericho Town Hall
* Jericho Market
* Underhill Town Hall
✨ Our goal is simple: Make this effort bigger and better every year so we can help even more children and teachers!
If your business would like to become a donation location, please comment below or send me a message!
And even if you can’t host a box, donating a few snacks or simply sharing this post can make a difference.
Let’s show our local schools what an amazing community we have! ❤️
