Churchville Chili senior Thomas Bekridakis has found a way to help the CCCSD school community through his Eagle Scout project.
Over the past ten months, Thomas has spent time planning, constructing, and installing a food pantry on the Fairbanks Road campus, behind the Operations and Maintenance building, near the middle school parking lot exit.
The food pantry is now available for use by any member of the community, and will be regularly stocked with donations from food drives that take place throughout the schools. The pantry will be maintained by students at the Middle School. Items available at the food pantry will include non-perishable food items, such as canned foods, cereal, and more.
Thomas has been a Boy Scout for more than seven years, a Cub Scout for five years prior and, with the completion of this project, is set to receive his Eagle Scout Award on June 1. Following graduation, Thomas plans to attend St. Bonaventure University and major in Sports Management.
