Christmas Food Drive

In an attempt to help children realize that giving can be as rewarding as receiving, a Christmas food drive has been organized at the Elementary School. Participation is voluntary. Families that receive the supplies will be anonymous.

Food and supplies will be collected from Dec. 6 to 20 in the lobby of the Elementary School before and after school in drop off boxes.

Suggestions of what we are looking for: canned goods, coloring books, sewing kits, toothbrushes, notebookes, pencils, crayons, mittens, hats, scarves, first aid supplies, paper towels, drinks, cereal, soup, puzzles, books and soap. Only new items, please!

We are not looking for fresh fruit or vegetables because of spoilage.

Help us share the joy of Christmas with others in your community. Please contact Mrs. Lamma at 987-8259 with any questions.
