Today Richards High School launched its traditional Thanksgiving food drive to benefit the food pantry at Pilgrim Faith United Church in Oak Lawn -- Class Officers, Leo Club, National Honor Society and Tri-M (music honors) distributed donation boxes.

Staff have sponsored competitions to encourage donations.

Through Nov. 20, the first period class that collects the most food will win a Great American Bagel breakfast party.

Also, for each two donations they bring, students will receive a raffle ticket (they can bring raffle tickets near the Activities office for a chance to win individual prizes!)
