Thanksgiving Food Drive
Help our students collect food for Shelter House!
As Thanksgiving approaches, we are instilling the spirit of gratitude and compassion in our children by involving them in our annual Thanksgiving Food Drive to support Shelter House. We believe it’s crucial for our children to learn the value of giving, and helping them collect donations for Shelter House teaches them empathy, generosity, and the importance of community involvement.
Together as the Sparkles! family, we embark on a journey of kindness and awareness, emphasizing the true essence of Thanksgiving: to be grateful for what we have and to share our blessings with those in need. Our children’s active participation in this endeavor reinforces the idea that even the smallest of contributions can make a big difference in someone’s life, spreading warmth and hope during this season of gratitude.
