Every year the High School Community Service Club collects food for an Edgehill food pantry. Please consider helping the community surrounding USN by donating canned goods.
By Erica Friedman '21
The High School Community Service Club is holding a food drive through Tuesday, October 22 through Friday, November, 1. Canned goods collected will restock the Kayne Avenue Baptist Church food pantry, located just a mile east of USN on 12th Avenue South.
We are asking Lower, Middle, and High Schoolers to please contribute. There are boxes located around school for you to donate canned goods. For Lower School, there are boxes in the kindergarten atrium and in the foyer area of the 21st Avenue garage entrance. The Middle School has boxes in the lobby near the 19th Avenue entrance and by the MS office. The High School has four boxes in the Hassenfeld Library lobby.
We appreciate donations of canned soup, canned fruit, canned pasta, and canned tuna.
Thank you in advance for helping us make this drive a success.
