VEAP Food Drive, April 1st-5th

3/27/2024 1:06 pm

Edina Public Schools is partnering with VEAP, the Twin Cities largest food pantry, to raise food and funds for local families in need. Please join us April 1 – 5, 2024 as we work to fully stock VEAP’s pantry and support them with financial gifts! With the help of area businesses, organizations, and other school districts, VEAP is aiming high to raise a total of $200,000 and 100,000 pounds of food during this critical spring drive. Every item and dollar have a huge impact: $10 allows VEAP to distribute the equivalent of 30 meals. Thank you for you and your student’s help! During our 2022 drive Edina collected 10,000 lbs of food and $5,200 in donations, let’s beat that number this year, Hornets!

 

We are also looking for volunteers to assist 5th Grade Student Service Leaders with counting classroom food donations and carting food to the shed behind Creek Valley. For more information and to volunteer visit this link: https://creekvalleypto.membershiptoolkit.com/volunteer/125639
