Christina Seix Academy Boosts Trenton Plates Event with 30 Volunteers

The recent “Trenton Plates, The World Takes” event, organized by Cross Community, Inc. and Rise Against Hunger, saw a significant contribution from students at Christina Seix Academy. The Academy added 30 students to a collective of nearly 1,400 volunteers who participated in a massive food outreach initiative. This effort resulted in the packaging of over 300,000 meals aimed at assisting individuals facing food insecurity worldwide.

Cross Community, Inc.’s Executive Director, Rob Ross, highlighted the important role Christina Seix Academy played in this community effort. The students’ involvement underscores the Academy’s commitment to community service and social justice. Initiatives such as the Middle School’s “MLK Day In Service” and the “Thanksgiving Basket Event” exemplify this dedication, where students come together to assemble food baskets for families in need.

Through these initiatives, Christina Seix Academy fosters a culture of service among its students. The Academy’s mission focuses on empowering young individuals as agents of change, encouraging them to develop a strong sense of identity and commitment to their families and communities.

The success of the “Trenton Plates” event not only reflects the dedication of the volunteers but also highlights the critical issue of food insecurity affecting many communities. By participating in such initiatives, students from Christina Seix Academy are not only contributing to immediate relief efforts but are also learning valuable lessons about compassion and civic responsibility.

As the need for community engagement remains high, the involvement of institutions like Christina Seix Academy serves as a positive example of how educational organizations can impact social issues.
