2018 Canned Food Drive
Mr. K’s advisory will kick off the 2nd Annual Lawn Avenue School Canned Food Drive. The two week event will run from 12/3 - 12/14 and will again be kicked off with Muffin Day! On this day, students exchange a canned good for a muffin* and on subsequent days students will be given one raffle ticket for each item they bring in (ex. 2 items = 2 tickets). The raffle will be held during the sing-along at the end of the day on December 21st and includes gift cards and other cool prizes given by donors in our community. The food will be sent to the Martin Luther King Jr. Community Center that serves Newport County including families in Jamestown. Last year we donated 563 lbs. of nonperishable food items which helped fill baskets for 328 families!
* There will be allergen free muffins or fruit for students with specific dietary needs (ie. gluten free, nut free, etc)
