The Washington School Nutrition Association (WSNA) “Fills the Cupboard” Spring Food Drive continues until May 15.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Donations support the Kent Food Bank.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Please bring nonperishable food items to any Kent School District kitchen. Join WSNA members who serve, cook and plan school breakfast and school lunch for Washington school children every day in a statewide effort to fill food pantries.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Suggested quality nutritious food donations include: oatmeal, whole grain pastas, brown rice, tomato products, canned veggies, canned fruit (packed in juice or lite syrup), canned meat or fish, shelf stable milk, beef stew, chili, infant cereal, and jars of baby food.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
With summer approaching, many people in the community will no longer have easy access to school meals, making it harder to feed their families. Although the school district offers a summer meal program, officials know that many people in the community will find it difficult to replace school meals.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The WSNA’s mission is to ensure healthy well-balanced meals are served to school children by providing education and training for its members.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
