Teachers unite with Hayesville Brewing to provide student meals

News

HAYESVILLE, NC – Classes are canceled at Clay County Schools, a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, but teachers continue their quest to ensure the well-being of their students during a difficult time. Many children rely on school meals for daily nutrition, and hunger won’t pause for the health crisis to pass. One such teacher is petitioning Clay County residents to kindly assist in the effort to keep local children fed.

“If anyone wants to help with our FREE BREAKFAST/LUNCH program during our closure of our schools, please go by today or call the HAYESVILLE BREWING COMPANY (across) from Jacky Jones Ford on Highway 64, and donate $12.00,” Tammy Jones Dills, the athletic director of Hayesville Middle School said. “The owners of the Brewery have graciously stepped up to help with this need. Your $12 donation will purchase a case of Styrofoam containers for the program, most cases have 150-250 containers in them, so that means you are helping feed that many children. Also, while you’re there pick up your lunch/dinner. The delivery company has graciously dropped their normal price of $19.50 a case to $12 a case after they found out it is for helping feed our students. If you live out of town and you still have those Hayesville roots running deep in your blood, you can send directly to the school, we are not set up to accept donations via credit or debit, but donations can be made by mailing a check or money order made payable to Clay County Schools.”
The mailing address is 154 Yellow Jacket Drive, Hayesville, NC 28904. Make sure to specify on the memo line of your check what your donation is for.
“Again thank you to all those that have donated and continue to donate towards this cause,” Dills said.
