For new store opening, retailer donates beverage, coffee funds for students' breakfast
PLAINVILLE, Mass. -- Cumberland Farms marked its newest remodeled shop, in Plainville, Mass., earlier this week by donating 20 cents of every ChillZone beverage or cup of coffee sold there King Philip Regional High School. The Framingham, Mass.-based retailer said that it hoped to raise at least $1,000 for the school, which serves Wrentham, Plainville and Norfolk.
The school plans to buy the sophomores breakfast when they take the state MCAS assessment tests, Assistant Principal Julie Miller said. "It's an awesome opportunity for us to give something to the kids that we wouldn't be able to do otherwise," she said. |
