Welcome to the Edina Pantry Project page! We are a group of seven seniors from Edina High School, each deeply involved in various sports and activities, coming together with a shared goal to impact our community positively. This summer, we've launched a food drive to collect 5,000 pounds of food to support local needy families. Driven by our passion for service and teamwork cultivated through years of dedication to our respective pursuits, we believe in making a tangible difference. Join us as we strive to leave a lasting mark on Edina, demonstrating the power of collaboration and compassion in action. Together, we're not just athletes and scholars but also advocates for a stronger, more supportive community. If you would like to learn more about our project, please visit our website!

In Minnesota, over 500,000 people struggle with food insecurity. This is nearly 10% of all Minnesotans. Join the solution to help diminish this number and fix this problem.
