COMMUNITY & SERVICE

Thanksgiving Food Drive

The IB juniors and NHS are excited to announce our Thanksgiving Food Drive! This is a wonderful opportunity for us to come together as a community and help those in need.

Starting October 1st, we’ll be collecting non-perishable food items to support the Fredericksburg Regional Food Bank, along with a virtual food drive, where you can donate money towards Fredericksburg Regional Food Bank. QR codes can be found on posters around the school. Our goal is to gather enough food to ensure that everyone can enjoy a warm Thanksgiving meal.

To make this drive even more exciting, we’ll be providing a prize for the top two classrooms to donate the most, so stay tuned for more details!
