Students held a food drive for the Idaho Rescue Mission and a giving tree event for Ronald McDonald House

Students at Montessori Academy Parkcenter in Boise recently held a food drive to benefit Idaho Rescue Mission, a local charity that provides meals for the homeless seven days a week. Students collected approximately 200 pounds of food for Idaho Rescue Mission, which the organization will distribute to local families in need during the holiday season.

Additionally, Montessori Academy students participated in a giving tree event to benefit Ronald McDonald House Charities of Idaho. Students donated nearly 100 pairs of pajamas and books for families residing at Idaho Ronald McDonald House in Boise while their children receive treatment for serious illnesses at local medical facilities. Through these initiatives, students learned the value of spreading kindness and helping others.
