Pantry Packs provides food to families in need.
This year we will be collecting:
-Macaroni and Cheese
-Protein Bars (KIND, Quest, etc.)
-Fruit Snacks (Fruit leather, Tree Top, Annie’s etc.)
We are excited to see the numbers grow each day knowing that these items are providing students and families in our school district support.
We will need one volunteer at each lunch to assist in the lunch room, helping kids finding the correct bin for their item, tallying and sorting donations. There will be 3 shifts for each day:
-11:45-12:10 (K-1)
-12:15-12:40 (Gr 2-3)
-12:45-1:10 (Gr 4-5)
This is a great opportunity to connect with your child and their friends during lunch time!
