Donor Spotlight: Hopkins School
 At CFB, we rely on people's creativity to help raise funds to fulfill our mission to feed people in need. For 17 years, Hopkins School of New Haven and its students have engaged in class competitions to see which group can raise the most money for us, using skits and video ads to rally the school. In 2007, they sent CFB a record donation. Read more in our Donor Spotlight.
