MINI PANTRIES
We have a goal of expanding the influence of our local food pantries by partnering with them and local churches/organizations to install a mini pantries at all of the 67 schools in our county.
School districts in Ellis county: Avalon, Ennis, Ferris, Italy, Life Schools, Maypearl, Milford, Midlothian, Palmer, Red Oak, Waxahachie
ELLIS COUNTY SPONSORS
Churches and organizations are needed to partner with a school campus throughout the school year to help keep mini pantries stocked or to organize food bags to go home with students.
Partner With A School
Churches are working with local food pantries and purchasing snacks themselves to keep campuses stocked. A lot of snacks are needed! See the food & hygiene list to help with a food & hygiene drive.
Host A Food Drive
any churches are directly buying snacks when specific items are needed to restock a pantry. On average it costs approximately $2,500 a school year to keep one campus mini-pantry stocked and when food bags are directly sent home with kids, it can cost up to $7500 a school year for one campus. Any donation amount would help us purchase more snacks.
