The food pantries and Share Shed at Carroll County High School and Middle School are both open.
Students can obtain quick serve food items through both food pantries. Hygiene items are also available at CCHS through the Share Shed, a separate offering that was created last year by CCHS alum Samuel Gray.
High School students can select their own food and hygiene items from the Share Shed that is outside the school building near the FFA rooms. Middle School students can select food from their pantry as well by contacting Youth Services Worker Shelby Jones.
Grab-and-go food, such as microwavable macaroni and cheese, beef jerky or peanut butter and crackers, are best for the students, said Kameron Melton, the CCHS senior who is in charge of the food pantry and Share Shed this year.
“Almost every other day it’s nearly empty,” Melton said of the food pantry and Share Shed. He noted small packages of Kleenex, toothpaste and toothbrushes as well as bars of soap are in high demand.
Donations for both food pantries and the Share Shed are being accepted at both schools. Please contact the Middle School at 502-732-7080 or the High School at 502-732-7075 to arrange a drop-off time.
