NEWS FROM OUR SOCIAL WORKER
Basket Brigade
I can't believe we are about to head into November soon. With Thanksgiving coming up,
I know that there are families who may need some extra support through the holidays. Every year, Basket Brigade’s goal is to donate 2000+ meals to families. The meal includes a frozen 12-14lb turkey, fruit, vegetable, beverage, dessert, stuffing mix, gravy, and potatoes (the turkey and bag of potatoes will be delivered on top of the meal boxes). All meals feed a family of eight and only one meal will be provided per family. Also all meals will be delivered on Saturday, November 21st. (Delivery will start around 10:00am. Depending on the weather, deliveries are usually completed around 4-5pm.)
So if you would like more information regarding Basket Brigade please send an email to Mrs. Shin (shins@ccsd15.net) by next Tuesday (11/3/20) at the latest! Here is their website: Basket Brigade.
