WCA Food Drive

MTCHS Student Government is partnering with the Women’s & Children’s Alliance for a food drive.  The WCA is a nonprofit organization that helps survivors of sexual assault and domestic abuse get back on their feet.  Our goal is to donate 400 food items or more to help this amazing cause.  Donation possibilities: Cereal, granola bars, crackers, trail mix, soup, pasta, peanut butter, jelly, canned fruits & vegetables, rice, tea, sugar, etc.  Please make sure the food is not expired and is nonperishable (canned/boxed)
They could also use some general household items such as: Trash bags, zip-lock bags, shampoo, conditioner, etc.
The grade that brings in the most items by October 31 will win an extra 10 minutes at lunch!
Thank you for all of your help!
