Food donations from Lakeland Ridge School in Sherwood Park go to Strathcona Food Bank 

We are happy to announce that the students and staff of Lakeland Ridge School in Sherwood Park have collected 788 pounds of food to help fight hunger in Strathcona County! The students and staff of Lakeland Ridge School inspire each of us to do our best and follow their example in helping the community. The donations have been brought to the Strathcona Food Bank already, and we know that many members of our community would like to thank Lakeland Ridge School.

As you know from our previous blog post on the Giant Thanksgiving Food Drive, Sherwood Ford partnered with Oilersnation to make this event happen.
