“Stuff the Truck” collects food, cash for students in need in Montgomery Public Schools
Tie & Doll, Inc., Winn-Dixie and Action 8 News want to thank all of you who donated to the “Stuff the Truck” food drive to help students in Montgomery Public Schools.
The 9th annual event was held Saturday in front of the Sturbridge Winn-Dixie on Vaughn Road. Student members of Tie & Doll were there with members of the Action 8 News team to collect food and money.
With your help, we collected 6,600 pounds of food and nearly $900 in cash. The food will now be put into backpacks and given to students in need in Dannelly, Garrett and Morningview elementary schools. Members of the Kappa Alpha Psi alumni group in Prattville unloaded the truck, while members of Grace Community Church will assist will distributing the backpacks.
We’d also like to thank the S.H.E. Agency, U-Haul and the Beta Nu Omega chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha for their support.
