food drive

Shadow Forest Elementary is proud to support the Society of St. Stephen Food Pantry through our upcoming Fall Food Drive, taking place November 10–14, 2025.

We are encouraging all students and families to participate by donating nonperishable food items to help local families in need this holiday season. Each grade level is asked to bring specific items to ensure a well-rounded collection of food for the pantry.

Items Needed by Grade Level:

  • Kindergarten: Bag or box of pasta/spaghetti noodles, canned spaghetti, and canned tomato sauce

  • 1st Grade: Canned meat products (tuna, chicken, or other meat) and boxes of macaroni and cheese

  • 2nd Grade: Canned fruit and canned vegetables (peas, corn, mixed vegetables, or assorted beans)

  • 3rd Grade: Canned soup

  • 4th Grade: Family-sized box of cereal and peanut butter

  • 5th Grade: Dried beans and/or rice (1 or 2-pound bags)

All donations will directly benefit families served by the Society of St. Stephen, an organization dedicated to helping those in our community who are facing food insecurity.

Thank you for joining us in showing kindness and generosity this season. Together, we can make a meaningful difference! 💙
