Eat Give Live (and Joint Meeting with Clinton Club)
Mar. 22, 2018
Thomas James (TJ) King, a sixth-grader at Park Street School was inspired to support the Greater Boston Food Bank through a class project where he wrote an essay on the food bank's impact on the community, where he stated, "just as there is a hero in every movie, there is a hero in the fight against hunger, and that hero is the Greater Boston Food Bank". He then created a Kid-Friendly YouTube Channel, Eat Give Live, to benefit the Greater Boston Food Bank. Where he gives his perspective on local and national restaurants (and some travel and adventure videos too). With each review, he makes a donation to the Greater Boston Food Bank and encourages viewers to consider doing the same. |
