The students, with help from licensed cosmetologist, worked on 90 clients. The project raised $1,655.00 for the Monroe County Diabetic Society. These funds helped to send children with diabetes to camp to help them learn how to live and deal with diabetes in their everyday life. Upper Bucks County Technical School held a week long “Fill-a-Bag Food Drive” in May. Students from the twenty programs competed to see who could fill the most grocery bags. Non-perishables were delivered to the FISH Food Pantry in Perkasie, PA. Over 2,334 pounds of food were collected, which is over one ton!
