Yesterday, members of our Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) chapter volunteered at Helping Harvest, lending a hand to fight food insecurity right here in Berks County and surrounding areas.
The group—13 students and 2 advisors—helped sort food donations that will be distributed to families in need. Helping Harvest is part of the Feeding Pennsylvania network, which also happens to be PAFBLA’s current statewide fundraising partner, making this experience even more meaningful.
We’re proud of our students for leading with service and compassion. 💙

🎓 Alumni Spotlight: Todd Peterson (Class of 1987) 🎓
Since graduating from Daniel Boone Area High School in 1987, everything Mr. Peterson has done has been for the community.
Mr. Peterson worked for 31 years as a police officer for Spring Township, in addition to being the president of the Birdsboro Community Memorial Center and running a historical Facebook page called Birdsboro of Yesterday. 🚔
One of the most rewarding parts of Mr. Peterson’s work is when people recognize a family member in one of his frequent posts. In one such instance, Mr. Peterson helped locate the son of a former Birdsboro graduate who was killed in WWII. The son, having never met his father, was taken to Europe where he was given a tour and his father’s 1941 class ring. The entire encounter was written in an article by the Stars and Stripes newspaper.
“It takes a lot to keep a building up and running.” This simple phrase exhibits exactly what Mr. Peterson has been doing for his whole life. Any responsibility requires work and true dedication to fulfill and it is clear that Mr. Peterson has become an invaluable member of the Birdsboro Community. You can still find Mr. Peterson announcing for school football games, so next time you're at a game keep an eye out for the Daniel Boone alumnus. 🏈
Mr. Peterson also had a few words of advice for current high school students. “Have fun. Enjoy your time.”
