Our Pioneer Pantry Story
Our Pioneer Pantry Story for Our CommUNITY!
In 2025, we were officially open on 7 days (11/14/25) in addition to Ms. Collins bringing families out as needed. We served about 12 families, with a reach of over 50 people.
We have received over 300 pounds of supplies, including food, hygiene items (toothbrush/paste, pads/tampons, soap and shampoo), baby items (diapers/wipes), and household supplies (detergent, dish soap). And we have distributed about half of what has been donated!
Most needed items have been: laundry detergent, toothbrush/toothpaste, baby wipes, canned fruit, veg and beans, sugar, granola bars, dry pasta, and baking mixes and baking supplies (sugar, canola oil).

Introducing G.E.N.T.S.
GENTS (Guys Engaging and Nurturing Tomorrow's Scholars) is a PSE's men's volunteer group.
Our goals are simple:
Give students more opportunities to interact with positive male role models.
Lend a hand at key school events like the Winter Carnival.
We’re starting small — just one hour a week from one male volunteer on campus—and we’ll grow from there.
After you sign up, we'll be in touch to confirm your role and schedule.
