Ardsley's Silver Lining Club Holds Food Drive for ARCS

Wednesday, November 9th, 2011

On Sunday, November 6, 2011, members of the Ardsley High School Silver Lining Club held a food drive at DeCicco’s Market in Ardsley for ARCS’ food and nutrition programs. The group handed out shopping lists to DeCicco customers as they entered the store and collected nonperishable foods, household cleansers and toiletries to be distributed to ARCS’ food closets. Even though the drive ran for just 3 hours, the group brought in an entire carload of donated food and supplies. Special thanks to club representatives Katherine Loomba and Felice Segal for organizing the event, and to ARCS’ THRIVES Coordinator Meredith Morabito for hanging out with the club and bringing the food back to ARCS.
