The 8th grade class at Norwood Norfolk Middle School is conducting their Flyers Care Package
Drive. This is a community service project conducted as part of their class work
on effective written and spoken communication and persuasive techniques used in both.
They will write business letters, brochures,
speeches and create posters to encourage the community, school faculty and staff and students in other grades to donate to
the project. In addition to in class assignments, they will all spend 2 hours
collecting food and other items at local grocery stores.
The project’s goal is to provide each recipient with a care package of
non-perishable food and household necessities. Our hope is that by providing
a substantial supply of pantry and household staples, the recipients will have some extra room in their budget for special
holiday expenses. We understand that some seniors have to make decisions about
what to fit into their budget; sometimes they must decide between food and prescriptions or bills and other necessities. We want to provide a healthy supply of food, so nobody must go without this holiday
season.
