WCHS National Honor Society members recently conducted a bake sale at Walmart in Riverton on December 7, 2019.

Warren County High School’s National Honor Society recently completed their Fall service project by running a bake sale. NHS members raised awareness for this upcoming event in their school and on the NHS Instagram page, @wchs_nhs_. The purpose of the bake sale was to raise money for supplies to donate to the Phoenix Project, an organization in Front Royal that helps people who have been exposed to domestic violence.

The bake sale took place on December 7, 2019, outside Walmart and Lowe’s in Riverton. Cookies, brownies, lemon tarts, banana bread, and rice krispies treats were all featured at the bake sale. The day ended with raising $660 for the Phoenix Project. Several local businesses also donated money towards the cause. Donations from Shenandoah Foot and Ankle Center, ABC Insurance LLC., Auto Center, and A Healing Touch brought the total up to approximately $1,100.

NHS members used this money to buy food, gas gift cards, and various personal hygiene products such as toothpaste, deodorant, and hairbrushes etc. Supplies were transported to the Phoenix Project office on December 18, 2019.
