Students at St. Charles College and its feeder schools — St. David, St. John, St. Paul, Pius XII and Holy Trinity — recently kicked off their annual food drive for the Sudbury Food Bank.

“For over three decades, they have been collecting cans to feed local families,” said a press release from the school.

“Every year, they have surpassed their goal by collecting thousands of cans from the community.

“The SCC contribution is always the largest single donation to the Sudbury Food Bank each year and the food bank has grown to rely on the major haul of cans and cash. 

“We are asking for the community’s assistance in helping us, once again, surpass our goal.”

Students will be going out into the community to collect non-perishable food items. You can also drop off food items at St. Charles College.

Kids will also be collecting donations from the community later this month when they bag groceries — at Metro Oct. 19, Chris’ Independent Oct. 20 and Vrab’s Independent Oct. 21.
