We are so excited to share that Thornton Academy has been selected to benefit from Hannaford’s Fight Hunger Bag Program, which makes it easy for customers to contribute to their local communities.

For the month of February, whenever a $2.50 reusable Fight Hunger Bag is purchased at the Hannaford located in Saco, $1 will be donated to Thornton Academy's student lunch assistance fund. This is a great way to broaden awareness and help our cause.

Let’s get started! Share the news with friends and family. Call, send emails and post on social media. The more people who purchase the Fight Hunger Bag in February, the more we can raise!
