Tom and Robin Braddock, owners of SERVPRO of The Beaches/Ponte Vedra, both serve on the board and volunteer for First Coast Blessings in a BackpackFirst Coast Blessings in a Backpack helps local Title 1 elementary school children in Duval, St. Johns, and Clay counties, that are on free and reduced lunch, have healthy food over the weekend. Two entrees, snacks, and breakfasts are included in their Friday bags to take home. Many studies have been done showing that when young children stress about adult issues, such as struggling to provide food for themselves, or coming to school hungry, they have a hard time focusing on learning. Blessings in a Backpack takes this burden off of children and their hardworking, often single parents. All the money donated stays local, and goes to twelve schools in our area. Help us fight child hunger, so these kids can focus on learning and just being kids.
