Annual Canned Food Drive

Thanksgiving is right around the corner which means that the annual Canned Food Drive will happen soon (along with some football and a good turkey meal). This is a HUGE event for our school (and community) and we have actually won this for 15 years in a row (shout out to AB Combs!). More importantly, we have helped thousands in our community.

November 23rd-December 4th

Each dollar collected equals 5 cans of food! New this year: We will also use some of the canned food to benefit our own Combs Backpack Buddies Program!

More information from the food bank: This important event comes at a critical time the holiday season when the need for food increases. Sadly, the fight against hunger continues as there are 450,000 people at risk of hunger in our local community, and nearly 30% are children. The Food Bank of Central & Eastern North Carolina strives to provide resources for our neighbors in need in our 34 county service area. Last year, the “Students Against Hunger” Food Drive was a record-breaking success, collecting 138,095 pounds and $48,628.00. When combined, that’s nearly 322,960 meals! We are hoping to beat the record this year. We can do it with your help! Students Against Hunger is held in conjunction with the WTVD ABC 11 “Heart of Carolina ” Food Drive . Participating schools donating the highest per capita food pounds will be deemed the "Leaders in the Fight Against Hunger.” For more information CLICK HERE .
