Beaverton School District Food Project for Homeless Students 

After a delayed start, we are kicking off our food drive with Beaverton’s McKinney-Vento Group to supply food over winter break to 50 of the neediest students and families. The amount of food we give will be less this year, but much more targeted to the requests of the students and families.

Key Dates are: 
    Friday December 12: Move food to the Fellowship Hall and load food on tables.
    Saturday December 13: Packout (fill food boxes and stage boxes for delivery)
    Monday December 15: Deliver food boxes to McKinney Vento office.

We are not providing soup as we have done in the past. Instead, we are asking that Bethel people donate the cost of full or partial boxes of food.  Details and sign up will be at the Volunteer table in the Narthex or Fellowship Hall soon.  Another option is to donate however much is best for you on-line or by check referencing ”Beaverton Homeless Teens”.   
You will also have the opportunity to sign up at the Volunteer table to help on any of the 3 dates shown above. 
Look for more detail in future updates.
