About:
The Junior Varsity girls basketball team volunteered by collecting food and money for Island Harvest over the Winter vacation. The girls wanted to give back to their community so on their own, organized a food drive outside a local grocery store. They sang Christmas carols while collecting food and monetary donations. The girls raised over 133 meals, including 4 full turkeys and $189 in monetary donations. It was truly amazing! They helped those families struggling around the holidays to have a meal. They definitely helped and made a difference for those in need!!
