I just had a surprise visitor at PES! Ms. Bev from Helping Hands had to share the exciting news in person! PES raised over $4,000 in the beginning of April to Pack the Pantry with Produce all spring and summer long. Thanks to the generosity of our school community and families, Helping Hands has been able to provide fresh produce every other Wednesday on their distribution days since April until TODAY! How incredible! A HUGE thank you to Berkots for partnering with PES and Helping Hands to make this money go even farther for the families they serve.
Also, for the month of August 2023, Berkot’s in Peotone will be offering the opportunity for customers to “Round Up” their total bill for a donation to the Helping Hands food pantry!
