WHS Students Change Hunger Week
Join Westfield High School in the fight against hunger! Over the next several weeks, Westfield residents will receive a note at their front door from local WHS students asking for food donations as part of Students Change Hunger, a Community FoodBank of New Jersey (CFBNJ) program — a friendly competition where students collect food or host food drives to help fight hunger in New Jersey.
WHS won the competition last year with the most food donated; in fact, WHS has donated more than 28,000 pounds of food — equivalent to 84,000 meals — over the last seven years! Unfortunately, as a result of COVID, food insecurity remains a significant issue here in New Jersey, and Students Change Hunger is looking to be part of the solution with assistance from the community. Please keep an eye out for the food pick up notices in your neighborhood, or make a donation to Westfield High School’s online fundraiser by visiting: give.cfbnj.org/team/379302.
