Panther Corner Food Pantry
I hope this message finds you well. As we approach the season of giving, I am reaching out to share an incredible opportunity to make a positive impact in our school community. Darby High School is dedicated to creating a supportive and nurturing environment for all students and their families, and we believe that no one should go without the basic necessities.

We are launching a special campaign to enhance our school’s food and clothing pantry, which directly serves students and families facing economic challenges. Many of our school community members are struggling, and your support can make a significant difference in their lives.

By contributing to our pantry, you can help ensure that every student has access to nutritious meals and warm clothing. Your donation will not only provide immediate relief but also contribute to creating a more inclusive and caring community for everyone.

Here’s how you can make a difference:

  1. Monetary Donations: Financial contributions will be used to purchase essential items for the pantry, such as non-perishable food items, hygiene products, and warm clothing.
  2. In-Kind Donations: We also welcome donations of non-perishable food items, gently used clothing, and other essential items. Please see the list of needed items below.  You can drop items off in our main office anytime during the school day.

To make a monetary donation, please CLICK HERE. Every donation, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to creating a community where everyone has the support they need.

Thank you for considering this opportunity to give back to our community. Your generosity will resonate far beyond the holiday season, leaving a lasting impact on the lives of our students and their families.
