The Renaissance Club is currently holding a food drive in 2nd hour classes for the local Warren Woods families. The food drive started on December 1st but, it’s not too late to donate your non-perishables. You have up until December 11th to bring in donations to your 2nd hour. That Renaissance Club is also offering an incentive to the class that brings in the most food in. On December 12th, the winning class will be announced during 6th hour and the entire class will receive a smoothie.
So, it’s a very beneficial situation, you could actually receive by giving back. “It’s amazing to give back because not everyone has the necessity to live and it’s very important to be able to help provide that for someone else,” Sarah Magierski ’16 states. Sarah has already donating a few bags of food to her second hour. This the food drive is asking not just for canned food but for all non-perishable foods. Each type of food has a point value that has been determined (see list below) and the class with the most points will be the winner.
