Food Bank Collection

The Mandarin Food Bank has been helping families in the Mandarin area for 22 years, providing nutritious food to about 30 families each day. They focus on self-help, teaching their families how to do things for themselves in order to support themselves in due time. While you are out shopping for your family’s groceries this week, please look for these items to donate. We encourage every student to donate at least one item and hope that you will take this opportunity to teach your child about giving to those in need.
