Ellicott City, Maryland — The Howard County Public School System has partnered with the LindaBen Foundation to support students and their families by providing food and housing assistance.
Under the terms of the agreement, the LindaBen Foundation will collaborate with Hammond Middle School and the HCPSS Office of Pupil Personnel Services to support school families facing food scarcity, economic challenges and housing instability by providing non-perishable food items, housing assistance, Thanksgiving meals and holiday gift cards.
The formal partnership agreement was signed by HCPSS Superintendent Michael J. Martirano, Executive Director Program Innovation and Student Well-Being Caroline Walker, Hammond Middle School Principal Aaron Dale and LindaBen Foundation Founder/President Annabelle S. Beavan.
