As you know and may be dealing with also\, there are many economic\, health\, and social challenges this year. Therefore\, we believed it was best to limit our recipients to only two important organizations so we can help them as best as possible. After interviews\, consideration\, and discussions - students and leadership selected our 2020-2021 Moore Love Recipients: The Regional Food Bank\, Backpack for Kids program and Moore Firefighters Santa Express! \n\n \n\n\n Regional Food Bank: Moore Public Schools (MPS) works with the Oklahoma Regional Food Bank to provide food items in backpacks for approximately 700 of our elementary students. These students do not have food to sustain them during the weekend and this program helps fulfill this need. There are also food pantries at many junior high and high schools for the older students. No child should be without food or go hungry. Website: www.regionalfoodbank.org\n\n \n Moore Firefighters Santa Express: This organization has been meeting the needs of our district's students and families for almost 40 years. They provide needs such as clothing\, food\, bedding\, or other living needs as shared with them by our school counselors. Their goal is to not only help the low-income families but to help the families who may just be going through a tough time due to loss of employment\, family illness\, or another personal catastrophe.
