About the Program: 

Pembroke Elementary is a nationally recognized School of Character and accordingly public service is included in our school's mission statement. For more than 20 years our students have participated in Pembroke's annual Harvest Hike gathering canned goods for local food banks. If Pembroke is chosen as a grant recipient we would like to expand our garden and donate fresh produce to local food kitchens in addition to the over 1 000 pounds of canned goods we donate annually.
