The members of the National Honor Society (NHS) at Mount Pleasant High School held a food drive in November in conjunction with Communities in Schools (CIS). In the end, MPHS NHS members were able to create thirty-three baskets that were shared with families who have students at MPHS. Each of the families was given a laundry basket full of canned and boxed goods, a bag of sugar, a bag of flour, and a turkey donated by Pilgrim’s.

“Last year we provided for 20 families,” said MPHS NHS Advisor, David Clark. “We were very excited about the amount of food we collected this year. Our original goal this year was 30 families. We had a total of 33 when we divided everything. We were also pleased that Pilgrims donated the turkeys this year.”
