I am retired and I am seeking publicity for the Hart Pantry, which is nonprofit organization whose mission is to help at-risk teens.

Currently the city of Peoria is aware of this mission. It’s shocking to me that there are hundreds of teens that are either homeless, living in a car or moving from location to location wherever they can survive.

These teens are identified by counselors at the schools — the counselors then get touch with the Hart Pantry, where food packages and other items are proved for them.

Here are some of schools participating in this mission: Peoria Unified School District, eight high schools; Dysart, five high schools; Glendale, seven high schools; Deer Valley High School.

Please help us to get the word out the community. Visit hartpantry.org.

Thank you.
