The Green Initiative at Silverbrook Elementary is helping save the Earth and local families in need of support. Last year, we collected over 8,000 pounds of unopened/uneaten food items during lunch time to donate to the Lorton Community Action Center, our local Food Bank. This is all food that would have just been thrown away!
Valerie Finney, our Librarian, with the help of volunteers from our community saw an opportunity to collect this food, and she and her helpers work every day to help our children learn about the importance of recycling and helping others in need.
They can't do it without your help! We need volunteers daily to help with this program. The time commitment is from 11:15 to 1:05. Please volunteer for our Cafeteria Recycling Program so that this program has another successful year!
Contact Mrs. Valerie Finney (vmfinney@fcps.edu) for more information. THINK GREEN!

Most volunteer sign-ups are housed on our MySchoolAnywhere account, but due the wonderful fact that so many from our extended community without access to our online directory volunteer their time to support this important program, you can find the sign-up here: www.SignUpGenius.com/go/5080E49AAAC2CA46-silverbrook
