As the number of families reliant upon local food banks increase due to the ongoing impact of Covid- 19, the community of San Marco will once again be partnering with the Vaughan Food Bank to assist families in need. As always, Thanksgiving and the Fall have always been a time of great need for food and toiletry donations. As a result, we will be participating in a:
One Day Fall Food Drive which will take place on October 15, 2020.
Bins will be placed outside near the entrance of the school from 8:00am until 3:30pm.
Families are encouraged to place a bag of food and/or personal hygiene items in the Food Bank Bins.
Please ensure that you maintain physical distancing to ensure your personal well-being as well as wearing a mask once you are on school property.
Kindly note that all bins will be held in a 5-day quarantine by the Vaughan Food Bank prior to being handled by their volunteers.
Items Requested:
- Canned or dry food items eg. Canned fruit, vegetables, beans, rice, cereal, and so on
- Soap, shampoo, paper product and other toiletries.
Items Not Required:
- Baby Food and Pasta as these items are donated in bulk by various food producers
Thank you all for your continued support and generosity as we are all truly in this together!
