Greene Towne Food Drive Starts Next Week!

The Annual GTMS Food Drive is Coming Up!

This year our food Drive will benefit Philadelphia’s SHARE Food Program. Philadelphia
SHARE provides a reliable stream of nutritious food to a network of 505 local volunteer-
fed food cupboards. In addition to providing emergency food relief, SHARE also runs a
community garden, providing residents in the surrounding community with increased
access to local produce. Last year, SHARE brought 27 million pounds of emergency food
relief to low-income Philadelphia residents facing hunger.

The GTMS Food Drive will run from March 6th – 10th. Please bring non-perishable food
items to donation boxes located at the school entrance, 55 N. 22nd Street. SHARE’s most
needed items this year are tuna fish, peanut butter and jelly, and canned fruits and
vegetables with easy-to-open tops. Once the Food Drive is over, our Kindergarteners will
help sort the donations.

Your donations are greatly appreciated by many Philadelphians throughout the area!
