Seneca church responds to hungry kids

A donation by members of the Seneca Presbyterian Church will feed 17 children through the Backpack Program operated at Blue Ridge Elementary School. The Adult Bible class at Seneca Presbyterian spearheaded the fund drive and encouraged all church members to contribute. The children who will benefit rely on Blue Ridge Elementary’s breakfast and lunch programs, but they often face a food crisis over the weekends. The Backpack Program is a way to help the students and their families until those students return to school on Monday.
