    Eastside Ministry Canned Food Drive  - THANK YOU EFWMA!  This year we had a great canned food drive and collected over 30 bags of canned food for Eastside Ministries.  In addition, we were able to provide 10 Family Dinners for the families they serve.  The students were given a tour of the facility and were impressed with the variety of services that are provided to those in need.  Also, through other contributions we able to donate $400 to their efforts to serve others.
