Food Drive

Longfellow's Student Council is sponsoring a food drive now through the 16th to benefit the Oak Park River Forest Food Pantry. They have set a goal to collect 1000 pounds of non-perishable food and toiletry items, as well as $200. The Pantry especially needs pasta, dried beans, crackers, boxed snacks, canned items and toiletries like soap, diapers (all sizes,) toothbrushes/paste, shaving cream, and shampoo. Added incentive: the class that collects the most food and money gets 5 Bear Necessities slips for every student! Please be generous this holiday season!
