ARTHUR – St. John Catholic Elementary School in Arthur runs a daily nutritious snack program that offers fruit, vegetables and a grain or protein to 238 students.

This nutrition program has faced challenges due to a funding cut and the increased cost of food.

The Blessings to You Centre Thrift and Gift store in Palmerston donated $1,500 to help with expenses.
