This Week

Blessings in a Backpack Fundraiser
The West Bloomfield/Keego Harbor chapter of Blessings in a Backpack is hosting its annual Trivia Night Fundraiser on Friday, November 4th. Many of our families rely on school breakfast and lunch to feed their families throughout the week but school meals are not available when school is not in session. Blessings provides food to students over the weekends so no child goes hungry. If you cannot participate in the fundraiser, you can still donate. Please click here for more information.
