I wanted to quickly thank you for your contribution to our team last year. The snacks that you provided for us made our season more productive and fun, and we cannot thank you enough.\r\n\r\nWe received the materials just in time for our first meet. My runners were so excited to see that we had snacks to fuel them before and after their race. They run for a school where 90% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, and I personally know that my runners do not always have food readily available at home. Your help in making sure they are not hungry for practice and meets has been truly invaluable.\r\n\r\nMost of my runners are with me again this year. We still have some food donations to make use of, and it's no doubt because of the fuel generous donors have provided that we were able to take second place at a team in the city championships earlier this week. Institutional memory has it that this was the first time in more than 30 years that our school won a cross country meet -- needless to say, we are all incredibly proud of our hard work. Again, we have you to thank for keeping us fueled.
