Orca School Rocks!
Watch out Rainier Valley – we’ve got some serious do-gooders, movers and shakers on our hands! RVFB staff and volunteers just got back from Orca K-8 School and we are floored by how much food they have raised! This morning at 11am students ceremoniously marched around the school to deliver 500 cans and non perishables to RVFB. Under the banner of the school program, “ Kid A Can A Month: Quest for 5,000 ”, nearly 500 participants have collected over 5,000 cans in addition to raising over a $1,000 and harvesting 200 pounds of fresh produce-grown in their garden and pea patch. This is by far the most food any school has ever collected for the food bank! Huge thanks to Dave Couture, of room 201 at Orca for coordinating this effort! www.orcapta.org.
