What I learned about Pettengill this week

Hi, It's Emma. (and Tom with a few editor's notes)

I researched Pettengill this week (50% of our net profits from sales during September and October benefit Pettengill House, Inc. of Salisbury, MA), and found some interesting facts.

1. Did you know that in the last year, 240 backbacks and school supplies were donated to Pettengill House?
2. Did you know that 148,540 meals were provided through Pettengill's food pantries and meal programs?
3. Did you know that through donations from the River Valley Charter School (Katie and Emma's school) and numerous other community members, Pettengill provides needy families with supplies to support childrens' birthday parties?
4. A fact that I learned that I didn't know before is that Pettengill also helps with children's dental care.

I like helping Pettengill and I am glad that we picked them to work with.
