Canterbury's annual Thanksgiving Food Drive for the Nations Association begins on Monday, October 23. Each year, our school's generosity ensures that dozens of local families in need will have enough food for the week of Thanksgiving. In order for this food drive to be successful, it is extremely important that each grade level bring in all of their assigned food.
All non-perishables are due on November 10, 2017.
