To spread some love on Valentine’s Day, students atLakeside School donated and assembled cold cut sandwiches that were later distributed by The River Fund, a poverty center that connects those with food insecurity.

“Happiness doesn't result from what we get, but from what we give,” said Melissa Robinson, a sixth-grade teacher and the event organizer. “Today as a group we can make a difference. Let's work together and not only fill people's bellies but their hearts as well.”

The Lakeside PTA also donated supplies and money to go toward the effort.

In total, the classes donated nearly 2,000 sandwiches, as well as snack bags, extra bread and more.
