Please help Darien Youth Hockey Association PeeWee A's support Blessings in a
Backpack
This weekend we're having a drive to collect cans of chili, stew and chicken noodle soup for Blessings in a Backpack. Collection boxes will be at both ice rinks this weekend.
Blessings
in a Backpack (www.blessingsinabackpack.org) is a nonprofit organization that
strives to support the 62% of elementary school students in America who qualify
for the free or reduced-price meal program. Students that qualify for free or
reduced meals often do not receive the right amount of nutrition on weekends,
which can negatively affect their performance in the classroom. Each
Friday during the school year, students supported by Blessings in a Backpack
are given a certain amount of food to ensure that they don’t go hungry over the
weekend.

Twin Rinks and especially Blessings in a Backpack.
