Pinckney Food Drive a Big Success
Annual Clemson vs. USC food drive pulls in a pile of canned food.
Charles Pinckney Elementary’s Student Council completed their annual Clemson vs. USC Food Drive to benefit East Cooper Community Outreach (ECCO).
During the month of November, students brought canned goods for ECCO and deposited them into designated boxes for Clemson, USC or all other teams.
“The students showed tremendous enthusiasm and generosity, collecting a total of 2,158 cans of food,” said Stephanie Gatton, Student Council Coordinator and S.A.I.L. teacher.
