Operation Gratitude
Our 5th grade community service team is collecting candy for Operation Gratitude. Walker, bikers, and car loopers can drop candy at arrival in the rainbow area November 1-3. You can also drop candy at 22 Liberty Road.
"The Halloween Candy Give-Back Program has been connecting communities with their Military, Veteran, and First Responder Heroes each fall since 2007. Volunteers from all 50 states and Washington D.C. share a portion of their excess Halloween candy with Operation Gratitude. We then assist in distributing the candy to deployed troops, local military units, veterans, and first responders, providing a sweet opportunity for grateful Americans to thank those who serve our nation."
