Eagles in Action
4th Grade Eagles in Action
The 4th Graders' Eagles in Action project for January is BEDS PLUS. Since 1988, BEDS PLUS has given the homeless a safe place to sleep, hot homemade meals, professional counseling, and the job services they need to become self-sufficient. The 4th graders will be traveling to the BEDS PLUS facility at the end of the month to make and serve lunch, and also learn more about homelessness. Offerings will go to pay for the the lunch and to pay for small valued gift cards that can be used by BEDS PLUS clients (Goodwill, Dunkin Donuts, Walgreens, etc.).
Thank you for your support!
