Young Singers of the Palm Beaches, a children's choral organization started by local music educators in Palm Beach County, showed support for the Belle Glade Food Pantry on Saturday.

They raised money and collected food in a drive-thru event held at the Kravis Center called "Benefit for Belle Glade."

It's in response to COVID-19 and how it has affected those in Belle Glade.

This was the first event of its kind for the Young Singers.

They were able to collect about $3,000 and filled up their Young Singers van and three additional SUVs with non-perishable food donations.

It was an emotional experience for some in attendance, as teachers were able to see their students for the first time in person since March.
