AP Mays Pantry and Hygiene Supply Drive

Save to Favorites

Thousands of Florida students arrive to school each day with more than a backpack - they carry baggage beyond their years: hunger, homelessness, poverty, exposure to violence, mental health struggles, inadequate access to health care and more. They carry so much weight that they simply cannot focus on their education. Often times, these students and their families simply lack access to the opportunities their neighbors and peers may have. For these students, it’s not about raising the ceiling - it’s about raising the ground floor. **Remote Project** Now thru December 13th. Whether you want to volunteer as an individual or organize a group, CHS remote projects allow you to make a difference in the lives of children and families in your area by creating your own project and plan. The AP Mays Pantry & Hygiene Supply Drive is completed at your convenience and location.
