I am astonished and proud of our Emerson's students, staff and parents' response to my challenge of bringing in sack lunches to feed the poor.
Tuesday, we collected 694 sack lunches to support Uncle Pete's lunch program, which distributes the lunches to the poor and needy throughout the Chicagoland area.
I want to thank everyone for the kindness and generosity. A special thank you goes out to Emerson's PTO for donating food and Emerson's Student Govenerment who made 185 lunches. Click here to view pictures of the event.
