Dear Parents and Community Members,
We are excited to share the positive impact of the Backpack Buddies program at our school! This program provides weekend food bags to students experiencing food insecurity, ensuring they have access to essential nourishment over the weekends and return to school ready to learn.
This program relies on the generosity of our community to provide the needed food items each week. Your contribution, no matter how big or small, can make a real difference in the lives of our students.
Here's how you can help:
· Visit our Amazon Food Wishlist:
https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3RV13KCH4ZA10?ref_=wl_share
· Choose the items you'd like to donate from our easy-to-use list.
· Drop off your donations at Cedar Heights Middle School (19640 SE 272nd St, Covington, WA) throughout Monday -Friday
OR
Always feel free to donate any food you might have that is unopened, new in box, or unperishable foods!
Any donation helps.
Together, we can fight hunger in our community and ensure all students have access to the food they need to thrive!
Thank you for your support.
