WPS Students Collect Toys for Worcester GOLD

12/18/2024

Berlin, MD – On Friday, December 13, students from Worcester Preparatory School (WPS) gathered to donate gifts they collected for Worcester County GOLD (Giving Other Lives Dignity) during this holiday season.

This year, in addition to supporting the SGA Food Drive, our Middle and Upper School volunteers chose to give back to members of our community who are less fortunate. Worcester Volunteers collected toys to be donated to Worcester County GOLD.

Worcester County GOLD Inc. is a non-profit organization that improves the quality of life for local citizens who lack access to traditional means of support. They promote dignity by providing financial aid to families in crisis, as well as vulnerable adults and children in foster care.

Founded in 1970, WPS is a private, independent school offering Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 12 education and is located in Berlin, Maryland. Approximately 500 students from Maryland, Delaware, and Virginia attend the school. For more information about WPS, please visit www.worcesterprep.org or call 410.641.3575.
