Chesterbrook Academy Preschool in Herndon Holds Gift Drives

Students collected gifts for organizations Care Connection for Children and Our Neighbor's Child

Students at Chesterbrook Academy Preschool on Spring Street in Herndon recently collected gifts for children through Centreville-based Our Neighbors Child, which provides holiday assistance to children in the Western Fairfax County community. Students worked together to fulfill the wishes of 70 children.

Chesterbrook Academy students also donated holiday gifts to two local families in need who are supported by Care Connection for Children, a statewide network of centers of excellence for children with special healthcare needs that is sponsored by the Virginia Department of Health. Through their efforts, students learned the importance of helping those in need, especially during the holiday season.
