As part of the ABC11 Together Food Drive, local schools also compete in a food drive challenge called Students Against Hunger. Sanderson High School has won that competition for at least the past 15 years according to Jennifer Caslin, spokesperson for the Food Bank of Central and Eastern North Carolina.
Their generosity is why Eyewitness News kicked off the ABC11 Together Food Drive at Sanderson:
