Our amazing NJHS students recently volunteered at Feed My Starving Children, an incredible organization dedicated to ending world hunger. Students worked together to pack nutritious, life-saving meals that will be shipped to children in need across the globe. These meals provide hope and nourishment to communities facing food insecurity. We’re so proud of our students for making a meaningful impact and showing the power of service.
Thank you to the teachers and parent volunteers who made this experience possible for our students. Bravo!
