Chesterbrook Academy Donates $500 Worth of Gift Cards to Those in Need

Students collected gift cards and created handmade cards for local community members in need

Students at Chesterbrook Academy Preschool in Olney recently held a gift card drive to benefit Olney HELP, a nonprofit organization that provides emergency food and financial assistance to individuals and families in the community. Over the past few weeks, students and their families collected gift cards, which were picked up by a representative from the organization. Additionally, students created handmade cards to accompany the gift cards. Through this initiative, students learned the importance of giving back to their community.
