Helping neighbors all year
May 20, 2009 | 02:54 PM
With the help of school social worker Laura Jankowski, students at Minnesauke Elementary School have opened their hearts and created a food pantry in her office for the less fortunate members of the community. Throughout the school year, students have donated hundreds of nonperishable food items and toiletries. Members of the Minnesauke family and from the other schools are able to visit the pantry and gather necessary items in a private setting.

'So many people donate during the holiday season, but we really wanted to do something that could help these families out year-round,' said Jankowski.
