We are excited to host this event at Hillcrest High School and hope to make it an annual tradition in association with the school and their RCL,” said the organisation’s marketing and fundraising manager, Sandy Davies.
Speaking about the event, Hillcrest High School principal Denise Knight said: “Over the years, Feed the Babies has diversified, offering many more services to the community, including the training of early childhood educators. We are pleased that, true to our school motto, ‘If it is to be, it is up to me’, our Representative Council of Learners (RCL) has opted to help continue this legacy by hosting the ‘Buds of May’ fundraiser at Hillcrest High School.”
