Young Teen Again Looking To Stock Food Pantry Shelves

For those of you wanting to hear positive stories about todays kids how about what Waltham School 8^th grader Adam Claggett is doing.

For the fifth year in a row, Claggett is organizing a Thanksgiving food drive to benefit the Illinois Valley Food Pantry.  Adam is accepting canned goods at several spots including: IVCH; St. Margaret’s; Horizon House; L-P High School; Waltham Grade Schools and Grace United Methodist Church.  There are donation drop-off boxes at all these places.

Last Thanksgiving, Claggett’s food drive collected over six thousand pounds of food and over 13 hundred dollars.
