For the Reporter
Washington School Nutrition Association (WSNA) “Fills the Cupboard” Spring Food Drive – a benefit for the Kent Food Bank – continues through May 15.
Please bring nonperishable food items to any Kent School District kitchen.
Suggested quality nutritious food donations include: oatmeal, whole grain pastas, brown rice, tomato products, canned veggies, canned fruit (packed in juice or light syrup), canned meat or fish, shelf stable milk, beef stew, chili, infant cereal and jars of baby food.
With summer approaching, many in the community will no longer have easy access to school meals, making it harder to feed their families. Although the school district offers a summer meal program, it knows that many people in the community will find it difficult to replace school meals.
The mission of the Washington School Nutrition Association is to ensure healthy well-balanced meals are served to school children by providing education and training for its members.
