Winter Can Sorting and Packaging

On December 15-16th, Walnut Key Club held the school’s sorting and packaging event; part of our endeavor in this year’s annual canned food drive in collaboration with Diamond Bar High School. Throughout the final weeks leading up to winter break, students and Key Clubbers alike donated cans which were then contributed to families in need for the holidays. In regards to the specifics of the event, Key Clubbers first created different sections; one section for meat, one for fruits, and another for veggies, etc

After the sections were created, Key Clubbers took all donated cans and sorted them into their respective categories. After the cans were sorted, they were then bagged; one bag containing one can from each category. Though the first day of the packaging and sorting took place right after Walnut Key Clubbers finished finals; they pulled through and were able to make quick work of the cans, finishing them up an hour early on the second day. Personally, I hope that through our efforts in donating and sorting cans; we helped bring the holiday spirit to those who needed it.
