Bolton Elementary Helps Others During the Holidays


For Bolton Elementary Schools, members of Kindness and Compassion Club led the school’s food drive for Winston-Salem Rescue Mission and penny campaign for Samaritan Ministries.


As school counselor Rinita Williams pointed out: “It only takes 196 pennies to feed one person a meal at the Samaritan Soup Kitchen. In 2½ hours, the soup kitchen provided an average of 395 weekdays lunches in a 47-seat dining room. To feed 450 people one lunch it would take 88,200 pennies.”
