Five years ago, the Washington S.T.E.M. Elementary School in Lynn, Massachusetts, partnered with Stop & Shop, a supermarket chain, to open a food pantry on campus.
The school was one of the first five campuses to join Stop & Shop's initiative. Now, 235 schools across the Northeast host the pantires for students and their families.
⚾️ To celebrate the 5-year anniversary of the program, Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas stopped by the school and surprised students and staff alike with 500 tickets to a game a Fenway Park.
The move fits the... bill🧢. The Red Sox proudly host the "Strike Out School Hunger Program." For every strikeout thrown at Fenway Park, the team donates 10,000 meals to kids in need through the school pantry initiative.
