RE students stock shelves for Thanksgiving

RE students and faculty contributed thousands of items to the annual Thanksgiving food drives on both campuses, showing their support for the Rolle Neighborhood Center in Coconut Grove and Miami Rescue Mission in Overtown.
Upper school students brought in 343 bags of groceries, 20 turkeys, 20 hams and $805 in checks and cash for Miami Rescue Mission, which feeds thousands of Miami's homeless on Thanksgiving Day. Middle school students filled 45 laundry baskets with food and $20 Publix gift cards, and stocked three large boxes with surplus canned goods.
