On Monday, October 23rd, we will be kicking off our Holiday Food Drive to collect food to support the Space Coast Basket Brigade!
On November 18th, volunteers will be creating over 3,500 holiday baskets at Viera High school. This organization benefits families across Brevard County. Thank you for helping spread the word to your class families. I am attaching information you can include in your newsletters to families as well as the list of specific items they are looking to have donated.
Meadowlane Intermediate will have a competition for the class with the MOST donations. Student or teachers can bring their donations to Ms. Richey's office. The class with the most items donated will earn a donut party! 🍩
Please have all donations turned in by November 9th.
