Ft. Hunt Elementary School Care & Share

Many Ft. Hunt Elementary School (FHES) students live with food insecurity. The Fort Hunt Elementary Care and Share program was established by the Fort Hunt Parent Teacher Association (PTA) to meet this vital need. With food donations received from throughout the community, this program ensures that FHES students at risk of weekend hunger receive a bag (backpack) of food that is child-friendly, nutritious, nonperishable, and easy to prepare/eat.

Throughout the month of May, Aldersgate UMC will be supporting this mission by collecting donations of food items (see below-list of suggested food donations).

Donated items may be dropped off in the bin at Door #3 throughout the month of May.
