Bremen HS National Honor Society Chapter Hosts Annual Food Drive

Students from Bremen High School’s National Honor Society chapter and Student Council began preparations for their annual food drive!

From Monday, November 7th through Thursday, November 10th, students, faculty and staff will begin going door to door to distribute food drive donation bags throughout the community. Donations will then be collected, door to door, by students, faculty, and staff, beginning Monday, November 14th through Friday, November 18th.

Non-perishable food items which are collected, will be distributed through Bremen’s Micro Pantry and local churches that have programs for distributing assistance to the needy; recipients do not have to be members of those churches.

Those who would like to drop off their non-perishable food item donation prior to their scheduled pickup date can do so at Berkot’s Super Foods in Midlothian or at Bremen High School (Pulaski Road entrance).

Bremen High School’s Student Council sponsor, Anna Rauch, said “We are excited to get this event going and appreciate the support of our community and Berkot’s, who help make this event a success each year.”

Berkot’s Super Foods in Midlothian has proudly supported this event since 2015, donating paper grocery bags which help streamline the food drive donation collection process.
