Thousands of Valley children go without a healthy snack many of us take for granted – a peanut butter & jelly sandwich. It’s a simple meal that can do so much for a child while encouraging a healthy lifestyle. From July 1- 31, you can help thousands of Valley children make smart, healthy choices through 12 News’ Peanut Butter & Jelly Drive by donating $1 or more at the registers of Valley Bashas’ and Food City stores. One hundred percent of all donations will benefit the three Valley Boys & Girls Clubs.

For more information or to find store locations, visit the Bashas’ and Food City web sites.

On the morning of Saturday, July 12, be sure to stop by the Bashas’ located at the corners of Hayden & Indian School Road (8035 E. Indian School Road) for special promotions and live broadcasts with 12 News. Also, peanut butter and jelly donations will be accepted on this day only.
