The Bowling Green Community Foundation recently awarded $5,000 to BG City Schools for its food program during the COVID-19 pandemic.
According to Abby Forschner, the school district’s food service coordinator, the grant funding will be used to continue transportation of meals to rural areas of the district through the summer.
“We are providing meals throughout the summer which the district hasn’t done before but the current climate certainly dictates that our students receive services,” Forschner said.
“The Bowling Green Community Foundation is a proud supporter of Bowling Green City Schools,” the foundation Facebook page stated. “We were thrilled to be able to donate $5000 to help extend providing food into the summer, which BGCF has never done. The donation will also allow them to continue transporting meals to students in rural communities for those without transportation to BG, which is where there is the biggest need.”
