Our faithful volunteer Marvin Wroten inspired a student to do big things to help with feeding students at Paris ISD. Check this out!

💙 Mr. Marvin’s Market is growing! 🐾

What started with one refrigerator at Paris High School has now expanded to Justiss Elementary!

Mary Grace Gibbons joined Justiss Wildcats at their assembly this morning to introduce the second Mr. Marvin’s Market and share the special meaning behind the project—reducing food waste while making sure food is available for students who may need a little extra.

Two refrigerators down…and we hope many more to come! 💙

We are so proud of Mary Grace for continuing to turn compassion into action and inspiring our younger Wildcats along the way!
