Foundation staff present a donation to the Halifax County High School

Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA). The community involved group of thirty members have been very busy this school year. They have organized and collected a canned food drive, volunteered with the Feedmore Program, and made blankets for the Project Ask Foundation, just to name a few.

High School Career Days

Hundreds of Seniors and Juniors

toured throughout their school's gymnasium for career day. While some students knew they were heading-off to college, many students were looking at their options after graduating from high school.

The Foundation shared lots of information about scholarship opportunities that can help them on any career path of their choice. It was nice to see peers supporting one another whether they were going away or sticking around.
