KEYSBOROUGH students have collected food for families in need.
Mt Hira College is donating the non-perishable items to The Ansaar Project Food Bank, which each month provides relief packs across Melbourne to families in crisis, new settlers and ex-detainees.
Principal Sareh Salarzadeh said the students advertised the initiative via the college newsletter and at assemblies.
“We are overwhelmed with the Mt Hira College community’s support and hope that this initiative continues on a monthly basis in the future,” she said.
“It is important for us as a college to instil the value of empathy in our students and ensure that they are helping those less fortunate.”
