School Children's Families in Need

School Children's Families in Need

We are so excited to report this that we couldn't wait. Much more to come on this great story.

Chief Joe Stidham and BFPD decided this year to make sure school children in Bosque Elementary and Peralta Elementary are not left hungry. Chief Stidham asked Officer Wilkins to make contact with Bosque Farms Elementary and identify children who's families are in need of food this holiday season. The school identified four families. Chief Stidham also contacted the Mayor of Peralta and asked if he could contact the Peralta Elementary school. Chief Stidham learned that the Village of Peralta has their own food drive, and in fact they have donated tons of food to Chief Stidham for his project. Chief Stidham had originally set out to buy the needed supplies out of his own pocket, but he never dreamed Peralta and other citizens would step up and donate in this way.

Much much much more to come on this great story.
