Molino Park, Jim Allen Conducting Food Drives
November 13, 2011
Food drives are currently underway at two North Escambia elementary schools.
Molino Park Elementary School is sponsoring a school-wide “Help Our Neighbor” Food Drive through Wednesday, November 16th. The drive provides an opportunity for students to learn the importance of remembering those in need at this time of giving thanks. The top three classes collecting the most food will be announced on November 17 at the fourth grade production of “On The Radio.” Performances will be held at 1 p.m. for students and 6:30 p.m. for family and friends.
Laura Jackson’s fifth grade class at Jim Allen Elementary School is helping Loaves and Fishes Soup Kitchen by gathering nonperishable food items to help families for Thanksgiving. Donations will be accepted through Thursday, November 17th.

A lot of families are just getting by in the food department, I am sure that many are not. I know there are people out there with doomsday pantries. Inspect your stocks and insure that they are consumed before their expiration date. It would be a sin to allow good food to go bad, with hungry people in need. Thank you Lord for what we have, and let us not be indifferent, to the needs of those around us.
Congratulations to both schools for encouraging the children to participate in giving back to their community.
All the food donated at Molino Park Elementary will go directly back to support families in our local area. Thank you to the 4th Graders for taking on this very event – what better way to give back to your community?
Thank you Ms Jackson’s 5th Grade Class – you are exceptional students in so many way. I am so PROUD of you all.
THANK YOU to everyone who participates in this Food Drive.
We really live in a GREAT Community.
