 Members of the Women’s Club of Farmingdale joined with volunteer CASE workers on Tuesday, Feb. 10, at the Farmingdale Public Library to stuff grocery bags with an assortment of food items to be distributed to local students during the February break.
This is a community-driven initiative led by the WCF’s community impact chair, Tina Diamond, and her committee to combat food insecurity for local students during scheduled school breaks. It involves collecting non-perishable food items to ensure local families have access to healthy, consistent meals.
A huge “shout-out” to the CASE program special needs volunteer adults for their much-needed, hands-on help sorting and bagging the food items for distribution by school district social workers.
