Pine Belt Pays Off Student Lunch Balances At Brick High Schools

BRICK, NJ — Parents who got behind on paying for their children's high school lunches got an early holiday gift, courtesy of Pine Belt Enterprises.

The Lakewood-based auto dealership company donated $820 to the Brick Township School District to pay off school lunch balances at the district's two high schools.

The Board of Education accepted the donation at Thursday's meeting.

Pine Belt made a similar donation in 2017; the gesture allows families to start the second half of the school year with a clean financial slate in the cafeteria.
