Jaguar Pantry Update

Volunteer to pick up and transport

The Jaguar Pantry seeks volunteers with weekday, daytime availability (and a small-medium-large SUV, van, or truck) to help us pickup and transport food from various nearby locations to FCHS. These tasks take less than an hour and do require an ability to lift heavier items. To be added to the rotation of volunteers to help us with these tasks or to discuss more, please email: pantry@fchsptsa.org

$ Donations Welcome 

Your monetary donation to the Pantry help us purchase food items to include in (100) weekly student food packs and (90) bi-monthly family food bags. If you are able to donate, click here.

Are You a Food For Neighbors Red Bag Donor?

Food For Neighbors (FFN) is the primary means we (and Luther Jackson MS and Poe MS) have to stock our pantry with donations from the community five times each school year. You sign-up, receive reminders to set out a bag of food, shop for food items to include in your bag and leave it outside on the appointed Saturday morning. If you can, please sign-up to become a FFN Red Bag Donor. The next FFN collection will be March 2, 2026. 

Questions? Email pantry@fchsptsa.org. Thank you for your ongoing support.
