School Break Food Drive

The holidays should be a time of joy, but for many of our students, school breaks also mean a break from the stability of daily meals provided at school. To help bridge this gap, Robyne’s Nest is hosting its annual School Break Food Drive from October 11 to December 2.

Each year, local community organizations partner with us by hosting their own food drives, using our flyer to list the most-needed items. Once collected, donations are delivered to Robyne’s Nest, where our team assembles food bags filled with nutritious essentials. These bags are then distributed to students, ensuring they have access to food not only for themselves but also for their families during the holiday season.

Your support makes all the difference. Whether you’re an organization ready to host a food drive or a community member who wants to contribute, together we can ensure that no student goes hungry when school is out.
