The 14th annual Christmas Knights Food & Toy Drive was a great success!
On Saturday December 10, more than 140 students from KDSS went door to door in the Kincardine Community Collecting non-perishable food items and new toys. After each of the 28 teams collecting the food and toys they brought it all back to the basement of the St. Anthony's Church. 30 volunteers from the Kincardine community were inside the church organizing all the food and toys.

Anne Gibson, Coordinator of the Kincardine Christmas hamper program says that the need for hampers is up to 129 hampers from last year's 108 hampers.
All the food, toys and clothes will be put into hampers next week and picked up on Friday. Stay tuned to see how many hampers were created this year!
