✨ CHMS is Proud to Partner with the Franklin County Blessing Bag Network! ✨
Food insecurity doesn’t stop after 5th grade, and neither do we. 💙
We are excited to announce that Central Heights Middle School is teaming up with the K-5 Franklin County Blessing Bag Network to extend weekend Blessing Bags to students in 6th–8th grade who may be facing food scarcity at home.
These Blessing Bags provide simple, ready-to-eat items and snacks to help carry students through the weekend, because no student should have to worry about where their next meal comes from.
If you would like to support this effort through donations, volunteering, or helping spread the word, please reach out and share! Together, we can make sure our Vikings are fed, cared for, and lifted up. ⚔️💙 If enough donations come in, we will make sure they make it to the other area middle schools in Franklin County, as well!
Thank you to the Franklin County Blessing Bag Network for your continued heart for our youth.
Community takes care of community. 🫶
