Jaguar Pantry Update

We Love our Donors 

We recently received a very generous donation to our Jag pantry from an undisclosed donor through Educate Fairfax that we are extremely grateful for. It is truly an honor to be able to partner with other local agencies to assist our Jaguar families with food insecurity. If you would like to support our continuing efforts by donating directly to the Jaguar Pantry, please use this link: https://form.jotform.com/222497914180056.

Volunteers Needed 

We are still in need of volunteers during the weekday daytime hours to assist in delivering bins of student weekend food packs from CityLight Church to FCHS. Sound like something you would like to assist with? Check out available slots here or email: pantry@fchsptsa.org.

Learn More and Get Involved! We’re fun people!
