Celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month and Indigenous Peoples’ Day Today students from Southwestern High School attended a special field trip to Mott Community College in celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month and Indigenous Peoples’ Day.

Southwestern High School students yesterday recently took part in a meaningful community service project, making and distributing meals to those in need. During their visit, they spent time at the North End Soup Kitchen, Center of Hope, Carriage Town, and various other locations around the city, including the 12th Street Store, High Rise Apartments, Grand Traverse and 5th Avenue, and Riverfront. The students prepared and delivered meals consisting of turkey sandwiches, chips, juice boxes, fruit snacks, and cookies, bringing nourishment and support to the homeless in our community. Their efforts reflect their commitment to making a difference and helping those less fortunate, and we couldn’t be prouder of their compassion and teamwork. Thank you to Mrs. Miller, our parent facilitator and everyone who supported and contributed to this project. It was a powerful reminder of the impact we can make when we come together to serve others. https://midmichigannow.com/news/local/non-profit-walks-the-streets-feeding-the-homeless-of-flint #Southwestern #JagNation #FCS
