❤️Students Change Hunger❤️
MHS Key Club members are hosting the annual Students Change Hunger Food Drive!
38 million Americans are food insecure, meaning they don’t know if they have enough to feed themselves and their families. Over 650,000 live right here in New Jersey. The Community Food Bank of New Jersey is challenging all students, staff, teachers, and parents to think of those less fortunate by organizing a food drive and collecting as much food as possible to support those who need it the most.
Ways to Get Involved:
Drop off nonperishable food items either at the front entrance of the Madison High School from 2:05-3:05 on FRIDAYS from 11/17 - 1/12 or in Classroom A-1 any day of the week.
Donations can also be made online using this link: https://give.cfbnj.org/team/536959
Thank you for your support!
