My Project

This project is aimed at students who may not have access to healthy foods over the summer break. We live in an economically disadvantaged school district. There are food banks and food drives over the summer months, but they run low quickly and families might not have transportation to get to them.

These summer care packages will provide Wolfpack students in need and their families a way to have some non-perishable foods in their cupboards.

We appreciate your generosity. These tough economic times are hitting our families hard and we are trying to do our part to help.

Mrs. McCabe
Grades 9-12
