Heartland 2nd-Graders Send 384 Pounds of Candy to Troops

In just two weeks, Heartland Elementary School second graders in Lindsay McNally’s class collected 384 pounds of leftover Halloween candy for the troops.

The candy was donated by families schoolwide between Oct. 25 and Nov. 8. McNally’s second graders then bagged the candy, weighed it, and quantified the lot as a 384-pound donation.

The candy will be sent to troops overseas through Fox Valley Troop Support, www.fvts.org.
