St Benedict's Prep FY Religion Students #GiveHealthy Food Drive

Please Support Pierre Toussaint Food Pantry
Let's Get People the Healthy Food They Really Need!

Fy religion class

During the Winter Semester of 2016, Mrs. Lenahan's Freshman Religion classes at St. Benedict's Preparatory High School(Newark,NJ) had a project based on the following Essential Question:" How can we help sustain the Pierre Toussaint food pantry throughout the year?" There were 4 Parameters for any solution: 1)Simple 2)Doable 3)Sustainable throughout the year, year after year 4)No regard for reward. 

Long story short, a "Healthy Vend" vending machine,courtesy of Culinary Ventures, was installed on March 23, 2016 in our cafeteria. A percentage of the monthly profits from that machine is donated to the Pierre Toussaint food pantry to this day. Feel free to visit the course website https://sites.google.com/a/sbp.org/mrs-lenahan-religion-1/ and click on the link located at the top of the homepage.
Some of the students in Mrs. Lenahan's Fall 2017 Classes would like to continue to sustain the food pantry, this time with fresh and healthy food options. We are launching this food drive on October 9,2017 and plan to run it throughout the school year, year after year. 
Sister Linda runs the food pantry and would greatly appreciate your support.

Click on the DONATE button above and go to the donation store where you can pick out and purchase healthy food items.  They will be delivered for you directly to The Pierre Toussaint Food Pantry.

Thank you for your support!
