Help support the 44th annual Hauser Can Food Drive

Posted by admin on April 13, 2015 under Uncategorized | Comments are off for this article

Hauser Jr. High has earned a tremendous reputation for generosity over the last 43 years, serving as the number one collector of food in Illinois.  Our school community has collected and donated over 1,600,000 non-perishable items to the food pantry to date, with over 70,000 food items donated last year!

The Salvation Army’s Red Shield food pantry located in Chicago’s Englewood neighborhood is the recipient of the collection, and Hauser’s efforts sustain hundreds of families for six months.

The Salvation Army is counting on  the Hauser communit to fill the shelves again this year.  There is currently a pod in the Hauser parking lot that they are trying to fill.  Please help Hauser “Pack the PODS” to capacity!

To help Hauser, drop non-perishable items in the box located outside the Blythe Park office or drop them off on Saturday, April 18th from 9a-12pm in the Hauser parking lot.  For every 10 cans dropped off,  you will be entered into a raffle.  The Salvation Army’s Steel Drum band will be performing all morning.

If you prefer to make a monetary donation, you can either send a check or cash to the Hauser office (checks made payable to Hauser PTO) or click on the link below and use  to make a payment with a credit card or PayPal account.
