🍂 A BIG thank you to NEWcaps-Center for Advanced Professional Studies Business students! 🧡

Our Neosho Bright Futures team was excited to welcome NewCaps Business students this morning! These amazing students helped pack 300 special fall treat bags for our Weekend Food Program Wildcats and took a tour of our facility to learn more about how we serve students in the Neosho School District.

We are so thankful to Mr. Fenske for giving these students the opportunity to volunteer and make a difference in the lives of our Wildcats! 🖤💛

Thank you for giving your time, sharing your kindness, and helping us make sure our students feel cared for and supported. We couldn't do what we do without the support of our incredible community! 🐾

🐾 WE’RE ALMOST THERE, WILDCATS! 💙🧡

We only have TWO SCHOOLS LEFT that need delivery drivers for our Weekend Food Program! 🎉

We are looking for volunteers to help deliver food bags to our Wildcats at:
📍 Central Campus
📍 Middle School

🚗 This can be a weekly volunteer opportunity or something you commit to doing each week for the remainder of the school year. Every delivery helps ensure our students have food to enjoy over the weekend!

We are SO close to having every school covered, and we would love your help crossing the finish line! 🧡💙
