Beth had the great idea to put up a collection station at my office building to help out with the food drive. I called my building manager and got permission to set it up in the lobby.

I got the station all set up just under the wire because the building’s annual coffee bar event was taking place the following day and all the tenants in the building come to the lobby to have free coffee courtesey of the management company.

After everything was said and done, I collected 65 pounds of food from my building. I was quite pleased.

As I left my office on Christmas Eve, I realized that I still have all the collected food sitting in my living room, it was 1pm. I called the food bank and they informed me that they would be closing at 2pm. The San Diego Food Bank is 10 miles from my house. I loaded up my truck, and made the trek thru holiday traffic and arrived, just under the wire, to drop it off.

My stroll down Ave. Z is much lighter now. Very happy to help out my favorite Ave. Z girl.

My students brought in a total of 47 cans, adding to those collected by the student council.

To say a bit about our school, a few students who helped organize the drive asked if they could bring a few home because they needed them (our school has greater than 75% of the students on free and reduced lunch).

I want to say on behalf of the recipients from your efforts and other food banks.

We deeply appreciate it, without there’d be a lot of hungry children.
