Below is a letter from the principal himself.
“Our Saturday Lunch program was started several years ago to meet a need that had arisen amongst our students. We work with local donors, volunteers, and local churches to purchase and pack lunches several times a year. Much of the food is purchased by Cohutta First Baptist Church through their account at the local food bank which allows us to make our dollars go further. A volunteer uses the church’s account to shop at the food bank to get the items we prefer for our bags. Some of the food is also donated by local donors. In each bag, we typically have two canned food items (Beanie Weenies, Chili, etc.), breakfast food items (breakfast bars, cereal, etc.), packaged fruit, and small snacks. We have also included drinks from time to time depending on outside donations due to cost. Our students and families have seemed to appreciate the help. and we are always open to adding and subtracting names as parents contact us throughout the year. In addition to our Saturday lunch program, we also use our funds to help families as needs present themselves throughout the year. We have been able to help pay for groceries and pay utility bills as needs arise based on a protocol we’ve used for several years. This fund has been supported by so many in our community, and we are thrilled we are able to stand in the gap to help our families when needs arise.” – Principal Tim Wright.
*Arm bands for unlimited bouncy houses will be sold at the ticket booth. Arm band = $3.
*Cohutta’s Police Department will also be doing a raffle.
