Wiley effort helps food bank

Tri-City Herald
Wiley Elementary School collected almost 2,300 pounds of food and donated it to the Richland food bank for Thanksgiving. The fundraiser was coordinated by the Wiley Elementary student leadership team. Last year, the school collected 1,900 pounds of food. Because students exceeded the fundraising goal this year, nine teachers will receive a pie in the face at the school’s end-of-the-year assembly.
