Join the Mount Auburn family in our ongoing mission to support students facing food anxieties in the 2023-2024 school year at Isom and Northeast Elementaries within the Greenwood School District. We extend our heartfelt thanks to the Mount Auburn family for supporting this benevolent cause, and a special shoutout to all the incredible food donors – your generosity is truly awesome!
Isom Elementary’s “Nutrition Club” serves over 45 students, while Northeast Elementary’s club assists more than 45 students, ensuring they have weekend meals throughout the school year. It costs just $3.60 per student per week to make a significant impact.
Your individual efforts and contributions from Life Groups have not gone unnoticed. This school year, we’ve provided food for a remarkable 1160 individual bags, totaling 2320 pounds or 1.16 tons of food delivered to students facing food insecurities at both elementary schools. WOW!
The counselors and staff at both schools and Dr. Terry Terhune, Superintendent of Greenwood Schools, are very grateful for all we do for their students.
THESE ARE THE ONLY FOOD ITEMS ACCEPTED
