The St. Rose of Lima School annual Thanksgiving Food Drive went into high gear this week as students arrived at school with donations and then assembled 30 baskets for distribution through Sts. Rose and Clement Church on Friday. Middle School Religion teacher Denise Foggo coordinates the drive that is part of her students’ community service. In addition to donations of food, the students and their families also made monetary donations enabling the purchase of $25 gift certificates for each basket that recipients will use to buy turkeys. On Wednesday students assembled the baskets remaining socially distanced and working efficiently, which had Foggo smiling – even visible as she wore a mask. (Warwick Beacon photos)
