The Mount Auburn family continues our support of students with food anxieties by supplying them with weekend food at both Isom and Northeast Elementaries in Greenwood Schools for the 2025 – 2026 school year. Thanks to the Mount Auburn family for supporting this Benevolent Mission. Thanks to everyone who has been bringing in food items! The donations of food have been AWESOME! Isom Elementary has 45+ students and Northeast Elementary has 40+ students in their “Nutrition Clubs” who will need food for each weekend this school year.
The cost of the items for the weekend food each week is approximately $3.60 per student. In addition to the food items the Adopt-a-School team also collects clothing for students who may need them during the school day. Please consider donating items on the list in the image below.
Your individual efforts and contributions from Life Groups have not gone unnoticed. Last school year, the Mount Auburn family supplied food for a remarkable 2730 individual bags, totaling 5460 pounds or 2.73 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.
