GBN & GBS Students Receive Heartfelt Appreciation

Dear Dr. Riggle:

Please extend our heartfelt appreciation to the students of Glenbrook North and Glenbrook South High Schools who participated in this year's canned food drive. The Northfield Township Food Pantry is grateful to be one of the organizations that benefit from this effort.

The Pantry assists Township residents who are unable to provide enough food for themselves and their families. Currently, over 420 families, representing over 1,200 people, are eligible to visit the Pantry each month. Canned food items are the foundation of our food distribution. Each year we are amazed at the number of cans that the students collect. We receive enough canned vegetables to last until next year's drive.

The Pantry relies entirely on support from the community in order to provide this much-needed assistance. It is comforting to know that the young people in our community support our belief that Hunger is Unacceptable in Our Community.

A special thank you to the organizers of this event. We know the hard work and time it takes to organize a food drive and we are grateful to them for all they do to make this event a success.

On behalf of the people who turn to the Pantry each month for assistance please thank the students who participated in this food drive. Their hard work and commitment to helping our neighbors in need is truly appreciated.

Best wishes for a safe and happy holiday season.

Sincerely,Jill A. BrickmanSupervisor
