The Food and Mitten Drive

Written by: Rida S.

The snow is falling and the winter chill is finally seeping in. The icy winter season has sparked new inspiration. Greensborough P.S. collected non-perishable food items and proper winter attire for those in need. Families were beginning the jolly season with frostbite and starvation, and the Greensborough community wanted to help others by collecting essential supplies. The Food and Mitten Drive began on December 1^st, 2014, and ended just prior to the holidays. If you were in the front hall of Greensborough in December, you will have seen the generosity of the community. Our halls were lined with boxes full of food and the tree was covered in mittens. All donations were given to the Markham Food Bank for the holidays. Thank you to everyone who contributed! We greatly appreciate your donations.
