The Bend gives back

As the 2016-2017 school year kicks off, planning is in full swing for the school’s Community Awareness Committee’s goal of nine months of giving.  The committee partners with the CBS sixth-grade service club, Chief’s Hands, who throughout the year formulates their ideas, presents their plan to administration and then executes the drive to benefit their selected charities.  

Other organizations that the Community Awareness Committee plans to make an impact on include: The Community Food Bank, YWCA Santa’s Workshop, pop tops for Ronald McDonald House, Smack Out Cancer, Blue Bag snacks, Birmingham Reads and two Chief’s Hands projects that will be developed.
