Chesterbrook Academy in North Wales Donates $700 to CHOP

Chesterbrook Academy students also donated toys to local children in need this holiday season

Students at Chesterbrook Academy Preschool in North Wales recently partnered with Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) to give back this holiday season. They held a breakfast with Santa fundraising event at their school, which featured food, arts and crafts, and photo opportunities with Santa. All proceeds from the event were donated to CHOP, and students raised nearly $700 to benefit children undergoing treatment at the hospital.

Additionally, throughout November, students held a toy drive for Toys for Tots, collecting 48 gifts for local children in need. Through their efforts, students learned the importance of helping others, especially during the holiday season.
