Teamwork from the King of Prussia Indians Football Association resulted in a big win recently for Laurel House's shelter.The football league learned of Laurel House's empty pantry and full shelter from our recent email and blog post, and rallied together to help tackle the problem.
A collection drive was held at the beginning of the football association's season earlier this month, and a friendly competition was launched among the teams. The goal was to collect the most non-perishable groceries for Laurel House's shelter (and the winning team got the extra points of receiving free water ice for a week).
A generous donation of $100 from the King of Prussia Indians' board kicked off the food drive and supplemented the non-perishable items with fresh meat, fruit, and vegetables.
Congratulations to the members of 75JV (the winning team pictured at the beginning of this post), to food drive organizers Fran Littlewood and Joelle Newell who delivered the groceries to Laurel House's shelter with help from cheerleaders Hannah and Jenna (all pictured here) and everyone who supported this effort.You are all true champions.
