Discovery Archers are collecting canned goods to donate to the Mishawaka Food Pantry.  Last year DMS donated 1600 pounds to the pantry.  We hope that we can exceed this amount!

Mishawaka Food Pantry has supplied us with bins. They are located along the wall across from the main office. During Period 1 students can bring down the donations and place the cans in the bins. 

We are encouraging all students to participate and bring in items now through Wednesday, March 27.

Thanks for supporting our local community!!
