Summer School!!

Thanks so much for checking in!  As we close out the school year (only 3.5 days left!) we are very excited and blessed with the results of the last several months.  Since launching this program in November, our community has stepped up and provided for these children every single week!  It's been amazing to see donations flow in week afer week, and we are so blessed that we are a part of Crystal City, and that we have all decided together that we will not allow children in our community to go hungry.  Thank you! 

This Thursday, after school, we are packing bags for summer school.  Our goal (a really big goal) is to have all bags packed, for all four weeks of summer school, at the end of this week.  That's a total of 84 bags-complete with 3 meals and 2 snacks for each weekend day-at the end of this week!  We have a lot to be thankful for.  We have had many weeks where there have  been an abundance of donations, and we've been able to save those donations to use for summer school. We know that vacations, fewer kids, and many other factors may come in to lower donations during summer school.  We would love to end the regular school year knowing we have enough to provide for these kids during the month of June!  Following are some of the things we need in order to make that happen:

Ravioli
Cereal
Granola Bars
Breakfast Bars
Fruit cups
Pudding
Peanut Butter/Cheese Crackers
Tuna
Soup
Mac n Cheese
Ritz Crackers


If you would like to donate for summer school, please bring your items to Crystal City Elementary by Wednesday afternoon.

Thanks so much!!
