The can food drive happens every year. “This year we helped 75 families in Milton-Freewater,” says Susie Ellis. The can food drive has always been sponsored by the Associated Student Body. Seniors list all of the families that can’t afford food, so they gave all those families a free turkey and other food for a holiday dinner. Forty students were out on Halloween day giving baskets full of all kinds of canned food.
After handing out 75 baskets, they still had leftovers. Susie Ellis says she has been running the can food drive for about 30 years now. “ I am very proud of our kids that are sacrificing to be out in the cold and helping other families,” says Susie Ellis.
