The Union Vale Middle School Community Service Club collected pull tabs to support the Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) in Albany. The tabs were delivered to the Union Vale Fire Department, which is partnering with "Real People," the local chapter of the Eastern District Home Bureau. The tabs will be redeemed for cash to assist families staying at the Ronald McDonald House.
Founded in September of last year by Maureen Frischknecht and Michele Simonetty, the service club, known as the "Sunshine Squad", promotes volunteerism and community engagement throughout the middle school.
