Rise Against Hunger

Dear Spring Hill Elementary School families, 

It’s time again to initiate our Langley pyramid service-learning project in partnership with Rise Against Hunger, a global organization dedicated to ending hunger by providing life-changing meals to those in need. This initiative unites our students, staff, and families from across the pyramid to fund and package meals and make a meaningful impact in the fight against food insecurity worldwide. Please read below for information about how to join us by donating your time or funds in the most impactful way for your family.
