Hastings Prince Edward Learning Foundation received a boost Tuesday with a $10,000 donation from the Stirling Rotary Club.
The Stirling club makes an annual donation that is matched by Ryell Homes.
Other local groups also stepped up this year with Trish Clarke Royal LePage ProAlliance, Madison Excavating, Talbot Marketing, Lymans Landscaping and Landstar Canada all adding to the total.
The Learning Foundation will use the funds for its Food for Learning campaign at Stirling Public School and Bayside Secondary School, of which Stirling Public is a feeder school.
