Rockford Lutheran Acadmey Students Have Been Busy as They Have Helped Those Less Fortunate

  • Mrs. Hill, Drama Instructor, helped the students collect 33 large bags of coats for the Coats for Kids Program at The Children's Clothes Closet (which works with The Rockford Food Pantry). A lot of children will be warmer this winter because of the student and families at RLA.
  • Students collected fleece in November and made 470 scarves which were distributed to the Rockford Rescue Mission.
  • RLA students collected 100 towels for the Rockford Noah's Ark animal shelter and 6000 plastic bags have been collected so far for the Rock River Food Pantry.
  • Students created 100 pictures with Christmas messages for PA Peterson.
  • Students colored 500 place mats for the Rockford Rescue Mission for their Thanksgiving meal for the homeless.
  • Our students also collected money to go towards a bus for students in Jerusalem to get to school through the Bright Star organization.
  • Our 3rd graders performed at PA Peterson.
