Monthly Food Drive Brings Noodles of Fun

No child should ever have to go hungry – and Shelly Sharp and her team at the Watson Hidden Hills office is committed to making sure that motto remains intact in her community. 

Every month, the Watson Hidden Hills office and spearhead Shelly Sharp have been partnering with Woodland Acres Elementary School for a food drive for vulnerable children.

 Sharp has lived in the Arlington area for over 40 years and said she loves that her career as a REALTOR® enables her to get involved and lend a helping hand to those in need. Through her membership with the Jacksonville Chamber as an Arlington Council Board Member, she learned about Arlington 20/20, a local faith-based non-profit started in November of 2016. 

After learning about the desperate need some of the families faced providing food for their school-aged children, Sharp decided to partner with 20/20 by organizing a drive at the Hidden Hills office at the beginning of this year.

At the office, specifically requested food items needed each month for the families are collected, everything from canned tuna, peanut butter and jelly, and macaroni and cheese.

“It's a great way to give back to the local community while at the same time reaching out and connecting with our valued customers, asking them for their help gathering donations,” said Sharp.
