GUTHRIE FFA LAUNCHES FIRST RESPONDER DRIVE TO HELP LOCAL DEPARTMENTS

Guthrie, OK: The Guthrie FFA is sponsoring a First Responder Drive to help local emergency
first responders as well as the local food bank at the High School. As an FFA week activity
members decided to launch this drive as a way to give back to the community and help those
who are always putting themselves on the front lines.
The Guthrie FFA greatly appreciates all that our first responders do, and we want to
make sure to help them have many of the important items they need to serve our community
especially in the times of the Covid Pandemic. The FFA is asking it’s FFA members as well as
community members to help donate items such as gloves, masks, disinfectant wipes, water,
Gatorade, note pads, pens, and canned food items so that we can distribute these to the
various departments and groups. The canned food items will be donated to the food pantry at
the high school so that these items can benefit the students of Guthrie High School. The other
items such as the masks, gloves, and additional items listed will be divided up to the Fire, Police,
and Sheriff’s department to help them have resource items to use.
This drive will take place all the way up to March 8 th , 2021. If you would like to donate
items you may get with one of our FFA members, or you can bring them to the Guthrie
Agricultural Education building where we will arrange drop off. We do request if you want to
drop off items that you contact the FFA at (405) 260-6370 to schedule a drop off time. We will
retrieve items from your vehicle to maintain contactless drop-off.
We thank you for your support of the FFA as well as our local first responders.
