Summer Food Support
Dear Families,
As the school year comes to a close, I want to make sure you are all aware of a helpful summer resource. There is a “Pole Pantry” at Alycia Avenue and Hermitage Road in the corner of a yard. All are welcome to come by and take anything you need anytime.
If you are in a position to help stock the pantry, feel free to drop off anything you would like to share to me at Trevvett. They are always seeking canned goods, bread, peanut butter, oatmeal, etc. I am pleased to deliver to the pantry.
It is my pleasure to be your school counselor. Please do not hesitate to contact me anytime. Have a wonderful and safe summer!
Cheers,
Bethany Bushey
