Putting Community Service into Action! Members of the Philip Leonard Chapter of National Honor Society recently volunteered their time to help HACA organize its annual Thanksgiving holiday meal distribution!
Thanks to the generosity and hard work of everyone involved, enough food was collected and organized to provide 160 local families with a three-day supply of food! Each family will receive an assortment of items to help make their Thanksgiving a little brighter, including:
Cereal
Two varieties of vegetables and canned fruit
A $25 gift card to purchase a turkey
Cranberry sauce, gravy, stuffing, and mashed potatoes
Rice, spaghetti, and sauce
Peanut butter
Muffin mix and cake
Our NHS students jumped right in to help sort, organize, and prepare these meals for distribution to families throughout our community.
This is what community service and character look like in action! NHS is about more than academic achievement; it is about recognizing the importance of giving back, helping others, and making a positive difference in the community we call home.
We are incredibly proud of our students for demonstrating compassion, responsibility, and a genuine commitment to serving others. A special thank-you to HACA for the important work they do to support local families and for giving our students the opportunity to be part of such a meaningful project.
160 families. 3 days of food. Countless acts of kindness. Thanks for sharing these pictures and this story, Ms.Cary!
