Today is GivingTuesday. ♥️ A reminder that small kindnesses make a big impact.

Our HSD Angel Fund helps qualified students access meals when financial hardship stands in the way. Your gift fills a tray. It eases worry. It makes sure every student eats. https://bit.ly/HSDAngelFund

If you’re looking for a way to give today, this is one that goes straight to kids in our schools. ♥️ #GivingTuesday
