How to help
Most commonly asked for items:
We regularly get shipments of canned goods from our partner at the Greenwood Food Bank, and since they are shelf stable there's no problem getting more. But we also strive to have our students maintain a balanced diet including whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and healthy non-perishable goods.
