Millburn School District

Annual Thanksgiving Food Drive

November 18th-20th

 

Let’s help others have a plentiful Thanksgiving!   Deerfield School will be collecting non-perishable food for our community outreach partner, the Interfaith Food Pantry of the Oranges, in conjunction with the town-wide Thanksgiving Food Drive. 

 

We kindly request that you donate 3-4 items of your choice from your grade’s assigned food list (you are always welcome to donate more!):

 

K & 1st      Canned Fruit, Canned Cranberry Sauce, Healthy Soup with Protein, and/or Boxed Dessert Mix (no Jell-O)

 

2nd & 3rd    Canned Corn, Cornbread Mix, Canned Gravy, Stuffing Mix, and/or Healthy Soup with Protein

 

4th              Canned Green Beans, Instant Potatoes, Canned Yams, Tuna, and/or Mac & Cheese

 

* Please no glass containers or expired items*

 

Community Outreach is also requesting a donation of at least $5

to provide families with ShopRite gift cards to purchase a turkey, fresh produce, and other fresh items for Thanksgiving.  CASH donations may be sent in your child’s backpack in an envelope marked Thanksgiving Food Drive by November 20th.

 

Thank you for your support and Happy Thanksgiving!
