Dear Noyes Families,

One of our school’s Core Values is Caring for Others. One of the ways we practice caring is by supporting the Sudbury Food Pantry, which takes place one week per month. The Friday of the Food Drive week, third graders gather and sort the collections, and parent volunteers drive them over to the Food Pantry.  Here is this year's schedule, and fun theme's will be added soon:

We need YOUR HELP! Noyes has the record for the most donations and is always one the biggest contributor; let’s keep working hard! We ask families, if it’s possible, to donate at least three items. Students can bring in donations throughout the entire week! We collect all kinds of items like pasta, cereal, and canned goods, but we cannot accept perishable or expired items.

Every month there will be a different fun theme (which is very exciting for the kids) - sometimes it calls for dressing according to the theme and other times, they get to color a fun item and have it, representing their contribution to the efforts.

Common needs for the Food Pantry includes: LARGE SOUPS (Progresso, Chunky), BOXED RICE (Near East, Rice A Roni), BOXED MEALS (boxed potatoes, taco kits), TOMATO (jars of sauce), CEREAL, SNACKS (full-size chips & cookies), CONDIMENTS (salad dressing, ketchup, mayo), BAKING (brownie & cake mix, frosting) and PASTA.

Thank you in advance for supporting this worthy cause. We know it makes such a difference for members of our community and beyond.
