With the assistance of FLES teacher Carmen Rincon, Churchill Road fourth graders Sophia Stagarescu, Louisa Tidd, Iris Guo and Camilla Janada enjoy their community service activity, preparing sandwiches for Martha’s Table in Washington, D.C.

A snow day didn’t stop Churchill Road Elementary School third and fourth graders from making sandwiches for Martha’s Table, a nonprofit organization in Washington, D.C. that serves sandwiches to those in need. Even though the event had to be rescheduled, an enthusiastic group of students and family members were able to make more than 2,100 sandwiches for this organization. The sandwiches were warmly received by the volunteers at Martha's Table when delivered by the PTA Community Service Committee co-chairs Robin Hoeymans and Sarah Walter, and went right on to the vans headed out to feed the homeless in downtown Washington, D.C.
