FARMINGTON — Students at W. G. Mallett and Cascade Brook schools will participate in the 21st annual “Helping Hands” food project Friday, Dec. 7.
Students will begin a walking rotation from Mallett School to the Farmington Community Center at 9:15 a.m. They will rotate until all the food they have collected has been delivered the Community Center.
Cascade Brook students will be walking to the Community Center and delivering their food.
Food donations have been collected at the schools since the beginning of November. Students are asked to bring dry and canned goods or personal items from home.
After the food is delivered, children have the opportunity to view the boxes of collected items. Food is sorted by volunteers and loaded on a truck by Mt. Blue High School students. It is transported to the Care and Share Food Closet in Farmington.
This project is made possible by volunteers. Parents and community members are invited to join the event or make a donation. For more information, contact Pauline Rodrigue at 778-3707.
