Collection efforts are part of the Lions Club’s annual An­gel Tree Program which also provides toys and clothes to families in need. Food drives will conclude after Thanksgiv­ing to allow volunteers time to sort and organize donations.

Organizers say student par­ticipation in the food drive is important because it sends a message to students about civ­ic responsibility and caring for the community.
