Many local students live with food insecurity.

During the summer months students do not have access to meals at schools.

Throughout the month of May, Aldersgate UMC will be collecting food for students that is child-friendly, nutritious, non-perishable and easy to prepare and eat (see below-list of suggested food donations).

Donations may be dropped off any time in the bin at Door 3 throughout the month of May.
