Established in 2014 we are a grassroots charity that gives back to those in our community who are in need.
We at Peanut Butter & Jelly Project believe that hunger is not a crime and that, equal education opportunities and supplies are for all children. We strive to help those that need a hand up, not a hand out. The working class family that lives paycheck to paycheck, The homeless Veterans, The incredibly smart underprivileged child, that deserve the same access to education and support that goes with it. With the help of our amazing private sponsors we work to provide that “little extra” that so many in our community find themselves in need of.
We focus on these events annually.
