Over 200,000 Meals Bagged For Students

Teacher Treasures: A Resource Center and Fairvalue Food Stores have collaborated to provide 22,000 plastic grocery bags to Caldwell County Schools for meal distribution. The bags will be used to package meals for Caldwell County students. According to Guy Garner, Child Nutrition Director, Caldwell County Schools have provided 290,968 meals to students in need since school buildings were closed in March.  The need for new, unused grocery bags to package meals is ongoing, as is the need for new, unopened boxes of sandwich, snack, and quart bags. Businesses or organizations interested in donating either of these supplies are asked to contact Katie Tocci at Katie@teachertreasures.org to coordinate pick-up and delivery to Caldwell County Schools.
