I want to thank my AHGS family for supporting our birthday bag drive! This is the third year our family has gathered birthday bags to help families give their child a special birthday. Today my family and I dropped off 152 bags! Our amazing birthday bag drive at AHGS hosted by our student council collected 1,240 birthday items which were made into 71 bags. $1,358.24 was raised from penny wars all to support Ainsley’s Birthday Bags. My family and I can’t thank you enough and you make me so proud! All of these special bags are at the Atwood Area Food Pantry which is open the fourth Saturday of every month. Each unique bag includes everything you need to celebrate; cake mix, icing, party supplies and an age appropriate gift. The food pantry is open to anyone and we hope these bags can be a blessing to those in our surrounding communities and district.
❤️, The Beck Family
We wish you all a wonderful holiday season.
