Chartiers Valley Middle School students helped collect and pack food for South West Meals on Wheels.
The Peers Helping Peers group at Chartiers Valley Middle School and Intermediate School did more than just help their peers with a recent food drive that benefited South West Meals on Wheels.
The drive ran from Nov. 27-23 and students collected more than 1,800 items.
In addition to being used to feed the organization’s clients, the food will also be used to help make 100 “blizzard bags” – bags that provide Meals on Wheels clients with three days’ worth of non-perishable food, in the event that the organization’s kitchen has to close for inclement weather.
