## Florence 1 Schools Launches Community Impact Award, Honors Help 4 Kids Florence

Florence 1 Schools has introduced the F1S Community Impact Award, a new recognition program. This award aims to honor local organizations and partners for their significant contributions to supporting students, families, and child wellness within Florence.

Help 4 Kids Florence has been named the first recipient of the F1S Community Impact Award. This 501(c)(3) non-profit organization is dedicated to addressing weekend hunger among food-insecure public school students across Florence County. Help 4 Kids Florence provides thousands of food packages directly to students each week, distributing weekend food bags every Friday to identified students.
