Holiday Food Drive

The Robbinsville FIRST Robotics team, Nemesis, and the Sharon School collected an impressive 1,749 food items for the Robbinsville Food Pantry. Four minivans and one car load of food was collected was dropped off at the Senior Center. The winner, Mrs. Martin's 1st grade class, donated 342 food items to win a pizza party at Mannino's Three on December 5, along with a custom made plaque designed and engraved by Michael Filipek during his Digital Fabrication class. The high school students and parents picked up the donations, sorted, tallied and stocked the Robbinsville Food Pantry shelves. The food drive project was lead by Samantha Young, Stephanie Kovacs, Erica Falk, Uddhav Joglekar and Kiera Wolfe. 

Also, the Robbinsville Extended Day (R.E.D.) program just completed a holiday food drive at Sharon School, where the children amassed nearly 500 cans for the Lifetree Community Church Food Bank. Pantries throughout the state have been depleted by Hurricane Sandy and Thanksgiving, so all donations are meaningful at this time so please help if you can.
