WESTFIELD — The Blessed Buys Thrift Shoppe recently donated a portion of its quarterly profits, $1,000, to the Kinship Fund at Westfield High School. The thrift store is a project of the First Congregational Church on 18 Broad St.
In a letter of thanks, Westfield High School adjustment counselor Carrie Hildreth-Fiordalice said the Kinship Fund originated in 2007 as an initiative by two school adjustment counselors and a school counselor at Westfield High School to address homelessness and housing instability among adolescents.
