We are partnering with the United Way of West Central Illinois to help stock local food pantries, and we need your help! Each week, students can bring a specific food item:
Week 1: Beans
Week 2: Pasta, Ramen & Rice
Week 3: Cereal
Week 4: Canned Fruits and Vegetables
We will be on fall break next week, so students can bring their pasta, ramen, and rice donations to school on Monday, October 19, when we return.
Every donation makes a difference! Thank you, #StreaksNation, for helping support families in our community!
