Food Donations Needed
Please Help
Pomfret Power Packs needs: Healthy cereal, healthy kid-friendly snacks, baking mixes like quick breads/muffins/brownies/ and cakes. TEEG needs: Spices, baking mixes like quick breads/muffins/brownies/ cakes, stuffing, celery, butter, pie makings |
Pomfret Community School partners with TEEG, Christ Church, and Pomfret School
to offer a weekend food program to help families in need of extra food support. Every week throughout the school year children bring home a bag of kid-friendly meals and snacks. Schools have found that when students are fed proper meals and snacks over the weekend, they have fewer visits to the nurse’s office the following week
and focus better in class. There has been a noticeable difference in schools in the area(Woodstock and Thompson) that have taken on this program. The food is collected through actual item donations or purchased with monetary donations. The bags are assembled on a weekly basis at Pomfret School and then brought to PCS every Thursday. This program exists because of the generous donation of those in our community. |
