About the event
https://www.foodforneighbors.org/get-involved/form/
To honor Braylon and his selfless spirit, we have organized a way for friends and family to give back to the community on the 1 year anniversary of Braylon's passing. We want to take back this tragic day and turn it into a day of celebrating Braylon’s amazing life while being surrounded by those who loved him.
Food for Neighbors is a non-profit that helps to provide food for the Arlington Public Schools (APS) food pantries at Kenmore MS, Gunston MS, Wakefield HS, Arlington Career Center, and Arlington Community HS. Braylon volunteered with FFN a few weeks before he died and Rose has helped regularly since then. Five times a year, volunteer drivers collect red bags filled with groceries from Arlington households. The food is then sorted and distributed to the schools. Usually, the sorting event is filled with volunteers from all over Arlington. However, we have been able to make the November event a private volunteer effort for Braylon’s loved ones.
