| | Sheridan School District Dining Services and volunteers from local churches worked together last week to ensure all children in the community have healthy meals to eat over Thanksgiving Break. They boxed up more than 13,000 meals that will serve 960 children. Families who signed up to receive free meals from SSD received a box with seven breakfasts and seven lunches for each child living in the home. Each box includes a traditional Thanksgiving meal for the holiday. Meals were delivered to families on Nov. 23. We are thankful for the volunteers from our local churches who are helped to make this possible! |
