LEHS makes annual My Brother’s Table Donation
By Dan Baer/The Daily Item
LYNN-Students in the Jobs for Bay State Graduates program at Lynn English High School are once again helping the needy this holiday season, raising nearly $900 during their annual turkey drive.
Over 100 LEHS students took turns collecting spare change from students and faculty at the school with the goal of surpassing last year’s donation total despite the slumping economy.
In total, the organization achieved its goal raising $826 in a five-day period, which they used to purchase over 1,400 pounds of turkey from Market Basket in Salem.
As has been the case in previous years, the students donated the turkeys to My Brother’s Table in Lynn.
