Grade 6 families put together holiday dinner baskets for homeless shelter

Earlier this month, grade 6 parents pitched in to put together holiday dinner baskets for LifeMoves, a local organization dedicated to helping homeless individuals and families transition to stable housing.

“Participating families were asked to donate $10 towards the project,” said Harker parent Shuba Gautham (Samvita, grade 6, and Satvika, grade 4). “We had committed for 10 baskets, but collected enough for 17 baskets. We plan to use the remaining money for another food drive in spring.”

In early December, families went shopping to purchase the items for the baskets. They later gathered to create the baskets, which will be delivered to the LifeMoves shelter next week.
