Crossfield Gives Back
 On Friday, February 27, our school will be participating in Crossfield Gives Back, a day of giving where our students will prepare, sort and pack 550+ weekend food packs filled with snacks and meals for food-insecure students across Fairfax County. These packs will be distributed by Food for Others.
We are asking for the support of our Crossfield Community to make this event as successful as possible!
How You Can Help:
-
SIGN UP HERE to volunteer on the day of the event (February 27) as well as to help out with some items ahead of the event
-
DONATE HERE for our Amazon Wish List or to make a monetary donation to Crossfield Gives Back, allowing us to purchase items locally
Donation collection period: NOW through Monday, February 23. Please make sure all items arrive by then, so they get included in our packing event! Our Crossfield Community can make a difference!
Please share the donation link for food donations far and wide (neighborhoods, churches, local friends and family). This is an ambitious effort, but we know we can do it. Let’s show the love, Crossfield!
