Once again, your generosity blew everyone away! These are boxes stacked on boxes FULL of snacks for the BB Elementary Snack Cupboard. What a wonderful way to start the school year.

THANK YOU! B-B Elementary gratefully accepted the generous donations of snacks to refill the snack shelf on September 3rd. The Bergen Business and Civic Association coordinated a community-wide snack drive and delivered hundreds of snacks from collection points around the community and from Mustard Seed Food Pantry. Thank you for the extraordinary effort put in to help the Bees!
