Turkeys, canned vegetables, pies, and dressings fill the cafeteria tables as the leadership students gather the Thanksgiving Food Drive baskets after a long week of gathering food. The Thanksgiving Food Drive has been a project that the leadership class has led for years in support of Community Outreach.

“It is about giving back to the community and helping families in and around Stockbridge,” said senior Micah Rickerd.

The food gathered is to provide the families that don’t have the funds for a classic American Thanksgiving meal, with one during this holiday.

“I am proud to be part of such a generous movement, and even though it doesn’t seem like a big deal, I know that the families will really appreciate it,” said Rickerd.
