Staff members at Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn Elementary recently contributed to the H-M-S Backpack Program's peanut butter and jelly fundraiser. Several dozen containers of PB&J and other goods were donated. Pictured here, elementary staff members pose next to the haul with H-M-S Backpack Program volunteers. The staff-led drive was well received, garnering $400 in monetary donations in addition to the food.
