"Thanks for Giving" Food Drive
Now through Nov. 15th
Nickajack will be collecting food items for The Center for Family Resources, which provides over 1,500 Thanksgiving baskets to Cobb families each year.
Thanksgiving week can be even more financially stressful when students are home from school for more than just the holiday meal. Through participation in the annual "Thanks for Giving" food drive, our generous community captures the true spirit of Thanksgiving. With harvesting hands and a helping heart, please consider donating one of the following items to our food drive:
- Dressing Mix
- Cranberry Sauce
- Canned or instant potatoes
- Canned green vegetables
- Canned yellow vegetables
- Pumpkin pie mix
- Dried or canned milk
- Canned meat, tuna, or ham
- Canned fruit
Please send any food items that you would like to donate to school with your child. There will be a collection barrel for each grade level to drop food at the front of the school outside the main office. The grade level that collects the most food items will win a special treat. Thank you for your generosity!
If you have any questions, please contact School Counselors,
Andrea Mackey or Nicole Weber at 678-842-5814.
