Student members of Bishop Stang High School’s National Honor Society recently held their annual Rock-a-Thon to help area food pantries ease local families’ food insecurity.

While the format was a little bit different this year, students received and weighed food donations throughout this past Friday and Saturday, October 23rd & 24th.

By the end of the drive, they had collected over 2 ½ Tons of generously given items for local food pantries. The food will be distributed this week to local pantries at St. Anthony’s Church in New Bedford and St. Vincent de Paul Food Pantry in Wareham.
