The Salem Leadership Foundation joined with Young Life on Wednesday, May 1, to deliver nearly 7,000 pies for each teacher and staff member at every school in the Salem-Keizer district to mark Teacher Appreciation Week, which begins on May 6.
On Tuesday, April 30, 6,800 pies from Willamtte Valley Pie Company were delivered to First Nazarene Church on Market Street. Volunteers from the Salem Leadership Foundation and Young Life readied the pies for delivery on May 1.
On delivery day, pies were delivered to every school and work location throughout the school district. Each pie was accompanied by a note of appreciation.
This week’s pie delivery is the second time that the Leadership Foundation has shown its appreciation to school employees.
