Canned Food Drive

STUDENT COUNCIL CANNED/PACKAGED FOOD DRIVE

Dear Parents, Families, and Teachers,
JG Johnson Student Council will be starting out the year with a canned/packaged food
drive to benefit a few of our families here at our school. Any student may bring items
in from our list and other non-perishables of their choice. We will be able to select a
few families in need for the upcoming holiday season. We are starting to collect items
tomorrow, November 5, and we will continue to collect through November 22. Food
may be dropped off at the Counseling Center, Room 14. Please feel free to donate
additional items that are not on this list.
canned beans, dry beans, peanut butter, or other nut butters,
rolled oats, cereals, grits, stuffing/box,
canned fruit in juice, canned vegetables, tomato sauces, pumpkin, cranberries, soups,
stews,
canned tuna/chicken, salmon, other meats, rice, nuts, pastas, shelf stable milks,
