A Successful Fall Food Drive for MUST

Thank you to all of those who participated in our annual food drive. Collectively, MPCS donated more than estimated 7,500 lbs of food over the 10-day collection period. That is over a TON more than last year! Many in need in our area will be eating because of our community’s generosity. Our middle school was the largest contributor for the fourth year in a row! And the house of Aequitas won the middle school house competition. Congrats and thank you again!

MPCS will once again collect non-perishable food items to benefit MUST Ministries, which serves 45,000 people in our community each year. MPCS preschool through high school will help provide food for those in need. Through this combined effort, we will better serve our community.

Students can bring in non-perishable food items (no glass containers, please) from October 20-October 31 and place these items in the barrels located inside their school buildings/entrances. There will be a friendly competition between preschool, lower school, middle school (students can earn points for their Houses by donating items), and high school (by class levels) in anticipation of Homecoming. Thank you for sharing the love of Jesus with those in our community!
