In addition to helping those in need, the baking service project also was part of St. Agnes School's goal of "140 Acts of Kindness," a schoolwide project in celebration of St. Agnes' 140th anniversary this year.  

"St. Agnes has always emphasized community and service," said Brendon Dolan, owner of The Kitchen Studio at Pine Street and father of sixth grade volunteer Peter Dolan. "For these students, today was truly a lesson in loving one another and helping one's neighbor."   For more information about The Kitchen Studio at Pine Street, visit www.pinestreetcarpenters.com or www.facebook.com/pinestreetcarpenters.
