Cadets load barrels of cans they collected onto a truck for donation.SAVANNAH, GA (WTOC) -
Cadets
at Benedictine Military School spent several weeks collecting food for their
annual food drive to help feed the community.
Benedictine
Food Drive collected thousands of cans of food and more than $1,000 this year.
The
school donated their collection to America's Second Harvest on Monday morning.
"The
food bank fondly recognized Benedictine as one of Savannah's Hunger Heroes and
we appreciate their partnership in the local fight against hunger, "said Mary
Jane Crouch, executive director of
America's Second Harvest. "We are very concerned about the lack of
food on our shelves as the holidays and winter months approach and we hope that
the community will follow the Cadets lead in collecting food. It makes
all of the difference to local children, senior citizens, and families who need
our help."
