On Saturday, Aug. 11, the BurgerFi restaurant in Wellington hosted a school supply drive to benefit Red Apple Supplies, a program run by the Education Foundation of Palm Beach County that supports schools in high-need areas.
Throughout the morning, the event was broadcasted live by the 94.3 FM Real Radio crew and Florida Talk Real Estate. The whole cast was there, and everyone was having fun.
During the special event, many area residents came by and dropped off supplies, such as notebooks, pencils, backpacks and more.
The guest host for the radio show was James Gavrilos, president and CEO of Education Foundation. He pointed out that many school children do not have the necessary supplies to use for school, and programs such as this one are very helpful.
Real estate professional Nathalie Rauch helped put the supply drive together and was incredibly excited. “This event is important,” she said, joining the radio crew on the air.
This event was sponsored by BurgerFi, the Education Foundation, 94.3 FM and the Florida Talk Real Estate radio show.
If you have school supplies to donate, the Education Foundation’s store at 7071 Garden Road in Riviera Beach will be glad to accept them. Learn more at www.educationfoundationpbc.org/redapplesupplies.
