 The Mt. Nebo Food Drive has kicked off and is in full swing! It will run from Wednesday, Dec. 8th until Friday Dec. 17th. 4th period classes are competing against each other for prizes, but most importantly, the pride of being the class that donated most. What a perfect way to help those in need this holiday season!

Scoring for the food drive is as follows: 

1 can = 1 point

1 package of ramen noodles = 1 point

1 diaper = 1 point

1 roll of toilet paper =  1 point

$1 = 10 points

Our school goal is 15,000 points!

The food bank welcomes any non-perishable food items that are in good condition and store bought (not home canned).  The food bank especially needs:

 -Canned Soups With Meat    -Canned Fruits     

 -Canned Meats     -Canned Vegetables

 -Toothbrushes and Paste       -Toilet Paper

 -Soap and Shampoo         -Baby Diapers

 -Baby Formula     -Canned Beans

 -Ramen Noodles   -Macaroni and Cheese

  In addition to the traditional food items, the Utah Valley Emergency Food Bank is encouraging cash donations.  Their food connections allow them to purchase more food dollar per dollar than we can as retail customers.  Because of this, a $1 donation to this year’s food drive will count as the equivalent of 10 food items donated. (Cash and check donations should be given directly to the front office, not to 4th period teachers)
