Pure Barre Novi recently donated lunch box food items to the St. James Catholic Church "Back To School Food Pantry."

Pure Barre Novi members were generous in donating while attending the Aug. 28 Outdoor Pop Up Class at Novi Town Center. It was a beautiful morning of fitness and philanthropy.

Our Novi Town Center neighbor Walmart jumped on board too! They donated a substantial amount to help us fill the need at St. James. On Sept. 1, Pure Barre owner Bridget Stockton delivered the food donations to St. James. Fr. Ed Zaorski was so pleased and thrilled. St. James feeds 35 in need families on a weekly basis. Just think how happy the children will be when they open their lunch boxes! Bridget wishes to thank ALL that contributed to this worthwhile endeavor!
