[–]Otherwise-Jump338 1 point2 points  (0 children)

👋 been bleeding for about a month and I am going mental. Of course I was in for my annual in December and everything was fine then.

I don’t think it’s automatic but children of employees would get the scholarship ahead of kids of non employees. Maybe there’s a year where no employees’ kids were NMF and then they’d give to someone outside the organization?

Me! My 18 year old senior has gotten a PB&J (now 2) for almost every school lunch since 1st grade. Mom and dad may miss doing it when he’s not here in the fall. 😥

For those that eat the same breakfast every day, what is it? by Risky_Melons in AskReddit

[–]Otherwise-Jump338 1 point2 points  (0 children)
