Feeding Needy Children

A program in Washington County, VA is helping out children who cannot afford to eat during the weekends away from school. In the program sponsored by the United Way, volunteers will be packing backpacks full of food for the children over the weekends. With a $1500 check from the United Way, a new school was added recently for a total of three in the program. A similar program in Carter County is sponsored by a local church and serves children at T.A. Dugger Jr. High and Happy Valley Middle Schools.
