One Texas Church band together over the holidays to donate $10,000 to pay off an entire school districts student lunch debt. According to NBC 5, Royse City First United Methodist Church has a tradition of donating its Christmas Eve offerings to charity. In 2017, the congregation decided to donate half of the offerings to their “sister school” to help families who had fallen behind on payments for their student’s lunches. After witnessing the impact the donation made in the previous year, the church decided to help the entire Royse City Independent School District in 2018.
The churches donation was able to help 226 families for around $6,000. The school district will hold the remaining $4,000 to pay off future student debts, the Christian Post reports.

This is probably one of the most worthwhile donations I've ever seen. (Just my opinion.)
