WE Scare Hunger

This year, in conjunction with WE Day and Free the Children, Athlone School is once again participating in WE Scare Hunger. For the month of October, we are collecting donations of non-perishable food items to give to Winnipeg Harvest. Last year we collected 134 pounds of food donations. Let’s try and beat that goal!! Remember, every little bit helps. To learn more about the campaign, please visit:
