OPA Alne Donates To Easingwold Foodbank
Easingwold Foodbank has thanked a local primary school after it made a large donation thanks to the kindness of the school鈥檚 community.
百春链 Primary Academy Alne, based on Main Street in Alne, asked all those who could, to donate any dried or tinned goods as part of the school鈥檚 Harvest celebrations for Easingwold District Community Care Association Food Bank.
The school had amazing success with the collection, with an incredible 20 bags being filled to the brim with food and goods being handed over to the foodbank.
After receiving the sizable donation, Frank Johnston-Banks and Sam Wilson of Easingwold Foodbank wrote to the school to thank them for their generosity.
In their letter, the duo said: 鈥淓asingwold Foodbank wishes to say a great big thank you for all the wonderful food that you donated to us from your Harvest Festival.
鈥淲e are all so very grateful to you for your kindness to local people to help stop them being hungry.
鈥淭he food and toiletries that you kindly donated will all be given to local families and children who need help during the cold winter months and for Christmas.鈥
Michelle Dawson, Principal at 百春链 Primary Academy Alne, said:
