The D&D Project: Block P and Scholarship Updates

July 30, 2019

The D&D Project raised over $368 from your donations during the latest Casual Week over July 4th!

The Pinedale Block P Dinner that took place on May 29th was a great success, and Matt DeFendis was there serving parents and students at the event. Dinner was from DiCicco’s and sponsored by the D&D project. 

Pictured below are the scholarship recipients from Clovis West and Washington Union High School, and our own Katie Beyerle was there at Clovis West to present the awards. The students were excited for their scholarship and advised it would be in good use.

Thank you again for the support for The D&D Project, and stay tuned for future opportunities to participate in our fundraisers and activities!
