Helping Others at Thanksgiving

News catholic, Ladies of Charity, Missions, Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving Basket Drive

In East Tennessee, 1 in 4 children are hungry. For Sacred Heart’s first mission project this year, students collected food for Thanksgiving baskets for less fortunate children and families in our community.

K-8 Sacred Heart students sent in over 800 cans of food and donated a grand total of $1,081 towards perishable foods! Incredible!Tgiving Missions 1

To put this in interesting terms, turkeys are $0.50 a pound at Kroger right now. The monetary donations could provide over 2,150 lbs. of turkey.  That’s a lot of meat!  Along with the perishable goods, everything combined will provide about 200 area families with a wonderful Thanksgiving meal this holiday season. 

The faculty and staff at SHCS could not be more proud of our students (and the parents) generosity and willingness to serve!
