The Coupon Patrol It is time to start the new year with a new group who needs our help. Full Tummy, is not funded by the school system but by individuals throughout Limestone County. Those students who may not get meals over the weekend are sent home with a bag meal for when they are not at school. These students receive food assistance anonymously. The bags are fixed with specific items to meet specific needs. Please see the list below and if you have any questions feel free to ask.
Donations can be delivered to Phebe at Don Carter or Mandy at Springleaf. You can also message any of us to make other arrangements. Donations will be collected through January 30.
When we began to discuss this project two weeks ago we had no clue that so many children were getting the packages on Friday's, we have confirmed over 100 that are receiving this assistance.
