Grade 12 Take Action Projects

Clothing Drive:

There are many people in Winnipeg in need of warm clothing this winter. That is why I am hosting a clothing drive as part of my take action project. All sizes and types of clothing will be accepted. There is a real needed for winter jackets, hats, mittens etc. during this time of year. All clothing collected will be donated to Siloam Mission. Please drop off your gently used clothes to Ms. Cook’s room 205 between Jan 13-17.

Food Drive: 

People in Winnipeg are going hungry everyday, up to 15 percent of people in Winnipeg live in a food desert, a place in which there is little to no access to proper healthy food options near by. This leads to travel being a large factor in the cost of grocery’s, especially with the rise in food prices. To help mitigate this for the time being we are hosting a food drive between Jan. 13th and the 17th in which we would love your help with. This is being done as a Take Action project in which students have to take actions to support there community.  As the food is being donated to harvest Manitoba, some of the things that they need most include but are not limited to: 

  1. Canned Fruit 
  2. Canned Soup/Stews 
  3. Canned Tuna 
  4. Canned Vegetables 
  5. Pasta 
  6. Pasta Sauce 
  7. Rice 
  8. Peanut Butter 
  9. Baby Formula/Food 
  10. Instant Oatmeal 

In any way we are excited for your support.
