Dear Allen Brook Community,
We are so very grateful for all the generosity
and kindness you have bestowed upon our organization and the fortunate people
who will benefit from your donations. The children of Allen Brook blew us away
with their energetic dedication to the Harvest Food Drive! When we initially
began our project we anticipated raising maybe 200 food items, if we were
lucky. Your school and community raised 1,082 food items!! There was so much
food we could barely transport it back to our storage closet. On Wednesday during
the food drive, Seanan’s car literally broke down from all the excess food
weight it was carrying around. Don’t worry, it has been running fine ever since
shedding that extra Thanksgiving weight. So now for what you have all been
waiting for…Synergy took home the trophy this year for raising the most food
items. Horizon was a very close second as it was only 14 items behind Synergy.
Every house, including the Kindergarteners, raised over 200 food items! Truly
an inspirational effort. In my opinion, the entire school was victorious!
Everyone came together to collaborate on an effort that will truly make a
difference in so many lives. Campus Kitchen is already utilizing your donations
to cook nutritious meals that will be served at both the Salvation Army and the
Chittenden Emergency Food Shelf this holiday season. So many people depend upon
this food to get them through the leaner months of the year. We are privileged
to have worked with your community and wish to thank you all from the bottom of
our hearts!
Sincerely,
Seanan and
Kaleigh
