Alex Deng is fundraising
The Woodlands Food Drive Initiative
Everyone has been hurt by the new COVID-19 pandemic.
Hundreds of families in The Woodlands are struggling to put food on the table. Meanwhile, food banks and pantries have been losing donations and in-person fundraisers. This has made it hard to help those in need.
But we are determined to do something about this.
We are a group of 15 local high schoolers from The Woodlands, Tx. We're asking our community to donate to help food banks buy more food and distribute them to people in need.
So far, we have run physical food drives in neighborhoods all around The Woodlands. We have gone to over 50 neighborhoods and received over 11,000 pounds of donations from our kind community!
But we want to help out more. That’s why we are hosting this monetary fundraiser to amplify our impact. Did you know every dollar donated equals 5 meals donated?
We hope that you can chip in whatever amount you can. Thank you!
All funds will go to the Montgomery County Food Bank.
