More from Union Academy…

Today’s blog is from Cynthia Mitchell, K-12 Character Education Coach at Union Academy in Monroe, NC

Union Academy K-12 students and staff once again had the opportunity to partner with Servants With a Heart to pack meals for those in need around the world. Having collaborated with this incredible organization multiple times, this event remains one of our favorite days of the year! This time, we extended our schedule, allowing us to pack over 71,000 meals—our most impactful effort yet.

Throughout the day, students not only learned about the program but also engaged in meaningful, hands-on service by working together to assemble meals. They enjoyed the experience of collaborating with their school family groups, strengthening bonds while making a difference. This event continues to be a highlight of Union Academy’s Annual Community Service Day.

The team at Servants With a Heart is truly outstanding! From setup to cleanup, they are well-organized, professional, accommodating, and always friendly. Their seamless coordination, combined with the dedication of our volunteers, made for another successful event. Our school community is deeply grateful for this partnership and proud to support an organization making such a positive impact on the world.
