LOCAL: Boosters sponsor food pantry
The Bowie Booster Club will be sponsoring the Jackrabbit Pantry.
The pantry will open on Oct. 17, the vision to help fill the need of students at Bowie High School.
The following products will be available: Food, toiletries, bottled water and other personal care products.
The pantry will run as a self-service entity, and will be stocked on a donation-basis only. It will be available to all BHS students at all times.
To get started, a “fill the pantry” drive has started. Drop off food or other items to the office or make monetary donations to the club.
Put the term “Jackrabbit pantry” on personal checks.
There also will be a pantry coming to Bowie Junior High in the future.
For information, call Jill Jones at 1-940-366-1339.
