Area Organizations Donate To Lansing Middle School Lion's Pantry
Lansing USD469 is incredibly grateful to two local organizations who recently donated to our Lansing Middle School Lion's Pantry.
Lansing Middle School secretary, Mrs. Shirley Painton, accepted a $2,500 check from LG Barcus and Sons on Wednesday, December 13th. LG Barcus and Sons is a heavy equipment company based in Kansas City. The Lion's Pantry was nominated to receive this donation by a parent in our community who is on their administrative team.
Another local company, Huhtamaki, donated hundreds of dollars in dry goods and several hams and turkeys to our pantry before Thanksgiving. In addition, Heather Calloway, a mom of a middle school student and an employee at Huhtamaki, delivered 30 CASES of Chinette paper products for the holiday meals.
"We are overwhelmed and grateful for the support of Heather Calloway and Huhtamaki," said Mrs. Painton
"Huhtamaki's core values are Care, Dare, Deliver - with that being said, making an impact and helping in the community is very important to us. We donate several things and our time to help make a difference wherever we can."
