The Crispell Students Making a Difference club organized its Thanksgiving can drive, collecting 1,005 items from families throughout the school in just two weeks!

The drive collected enough food to assemble 20 boxes, which will feed 20 local families, and enough left over to be donated to the Town of Crawford PBA food pantry. The boxes include an assortment of vegetables, cranberry sauce, stuffing, desserts and all of the fixings for that Thanksgiving meal.

 

Also included in those boxes will be turkeys, thanks to Angela Wise-Landman, executive director of human resources, data and school counseling for the district, and her husband, Jake Landman, owner of Butcher Boys of Monticello.

 

Of course there was  a contest – the homeroom that collected the most food items would win donuts! Kathryn Blazeski’s 7 Blue homeroom will be enjoying those sweet confections, thanks to their generosity! Great job to them and everyone who contributed.

The Thanksgiving meal boxes will be delivered on Monday and Tuesday, Nov. 21 and 22, by Crispell staff and Officer Kev Shannon.

Great job to all. And Happy Thanksgiving.
