FOOD DONATION COLLECTION - Nov 16-20. OE Carmel is working with the BackSack Program, coordinated by The Merciful HELP Center, providing children with food for the weekends when school meals aren’t available. Collecting: raisins, trail mix, and granola bars, small bags of cheese crackers, chips, popcorn, or pretzels, applesauce pouches - and gluten free, nut-free, and dairy-free alternatives. Mac and Cheese cups, lower-sugar cereal cups and pop-top cans of chicken noodles or Chef Boyardee.
