Invictus Prep Charter School Makes a Positive Impact This Holiday Season

January 30, 2017

Invictus Prep Charter School in Brooklyn, NY, hosted their first annual holiday food drive, which was preceded by their recent Thanksgiving food drive, from December 6-21 in an effort to help out their neighbors in need this holiday season. 

Students and faculty members donated a grand total of 280 pounds of food - that's the equivalent of more than 230 meals!

A-1 First Class Moving, an Atlas Van Lines agent, generously volunteered to provide collection boxes and delivered the donations to the Island Harvest Food Bank.

There are approximately 515,000 people, including 1 in 5 children, in Kings County that are facing hunger each day. Many thanks to the generous students and faculty of Invictus Prep Charter School for lending a hand to their neighbors in need this holiday season.

Anyone can host a food drive. We can help!
