About:
All 18 girls on the team contributed to the food collection. Each player/family was asked to donate any non-perishable food/goods that they could! I had 6 of my upperclass players sign up as drivers to coordinate and pick up the food at the other girls houses. Each driver had 3 houses to pick up. One of my seniors, Anne Parsons, was in charge of coordinating the event with The Serenity House. She also housed all of the collected food at her house and was dropping it off to the serenity house this week. We ran this in conjunction with one of our school clubs.
The players were instructed to collect food 2 weeks prior to collection. On Sunday the drivers spent a couple hours collecting the food from their teammates houses and organizing it at our senior coordinators house.
The girls were more than happy and excited to give back to our community! I am beyond proud of them as well! One of our goals is to continue to have a positive impact on our community!
