COMING SOON…(Date TBD-watch for the date in next week’s virtual backpack)
Emmons School will be hosting a
MOBILE FOOD PANTRY!!
We have an amazing opportunity to help our neighbors this holiday season and show our Emmons spirit!!
Here’s how it works:
*A mobile food pantry truck filled with 10,000 lbs of food will come to our parking lot on the designated date.
*The Mobile pantry will be able to serve over 200 families in two hours!
*The Open Arms Pantry will advertise our service at their location prior to the event.
*Anyone who is experiencing financial hardship is welcome to visit the mobile pantry that day and receive assistance in the form of groceries.
*Emmons’ students will write short letters that will be passed out with the bags of food.
How can Emmons families make it happen?
*Through Open Arm’s sponsorship, we are able to get the truck for $850 instead of the regular price of $2000.
*We are asking a small donation of $5-$10/family to help fund this event.
*We need 15 volunteers to help on that day from ~4PM-7PM. If you’re interested, please email Carla Moser at cmoser@emmons-school.
*Thank you for supporting Emmons’ efforts to help make this a happy holiday season for all!
