Welcome to the Fighting Childhood Hunger Club at WHS!
No child should be limited by hunger, together we can make a difference!
We meet once a month on Wednesdays from 2:40 - 2:55 in the Library to discuss upcoming fundraisers and community service!

Our mission
Fighting Childhood Hunger works directly with the non-profit Filling in the Blanks to get food directly into the hands of children for meals for the weekend. We will also hold food/toy/money fundraisers for children in need as well as spread awareness of childhood hunger.
We can not fulfill our mission without volunteers and members to help us! It feels great to make a difference so a child can enjoy their life and a family doesn't have to worry about where their next meal will come from. Every person counts, FIND OUT WHAT YOU CAN DO TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE:
