Drive Away Hunger

In recognition of World Food Day on Friday, October 17th, employees at Farm Credit Canada and local food banks across Saskatchewan will be collecting donations of food and money for people who are hungry in our province.

Coronach School  is  once again participating in the FCC Drive Away Hunger food campaign.  Below is a list of the most need food items according to Food Banks Canada:
Pasta (canned or dried)
Canned vegetables or fruit
Canned or powdered milk
Canned goods (beans, soups, stews)
Pasta sauces
Flour
Whole grain cereals
Rice
Canned meat or fish
Infant foods and baby formula

Last year we collected 859 pounds of food and we are hoping to beat that total this year.
Bags have been sent home and collections will be taken from September 29th-October14th.

Thank you for your continued participation in this project!
