Food Pantry Reminder:

The February collection for the Food Pantry is next week, February 8-12th

We’re halfway through the year and almost halfway towards our goal of 10,000 items! Please keep up the good work and keep bringing in items. Remember, early release days are a perfect day to send in extra for the pantry!

We are asking for at least two items per child per collection. The needs this year are very high. Please give generously!
