The 2nd annual International Disaster Emergency Services Team (IDES) Meal Pack, sponsored by the Hamilton Heights School Corporation Wellness Team, took place earlier this week.
This gathering and service project was designed to focus on staff social/emotional wellness in this season of giving. In traditional Heights fashion, several student teams joined in bringing together a total of 90 staff, some of their families, and students who packed and boxed 15,960 meals that will be sent to Honduras.
Emily Beechler, Media Center Specialist at Hamilton Heights Middle School, has helped spearhead the event for a second year in a row. She said it’s a privilege and honor to support a local ministry that serves with heart, soul, and resources that make a life-changing impact around the world.
