Community Food Drive - Cabot Can
April 16, 2015
April 16, 2015
From April 13-May 24 there will be a community food drive to collect canned food items that will serve as an extension of the Cabot Public Schools backpack feeding program.
Currently, there are more than 330 students who are provided food supplies on weekly basis from the Cabot School District throughout the school year to help not only feed themselves but their entire family.
Once school lets out for the summer, these students no longer get take home food from the school district so Cabot Can was created to be a summer extension of that program.
If you would like to donate canned food items, please contact Pam Clem (501) 743-3530 or Cabot_Can@yahoo.com or the below schools. **Monetary donations are also accepted**
