St. Stephen the Martyr Catholic School is committed to community outreach! Our students participate in the Corporal Works of Mercy through service projects throughout the year. At this time of the year, we focus on supporting those in our community who experience food insecurity through our annual Thanksgiving Food Drive. We are especially grateful this year due to increased volume of participation in the St. Stephen the Martyr Food Pantry as a result of the suspension of SNAP Benefits.
This year, the Thanksgiving Food Drive will run Monday, November 17th – Tuesday, November 25th.
