What does a ton of Christmas tuna look like?  CDA high school students have enlisted the help of the CDA Logic School (grades 5-8) to collect 5,334 cans (one ton) of tuna!  And lest that number seem staggering, it is really only 18 cans per 5-12th grade student.

Our high school chose to respond to CCA’s (Christian Community Action) request for  canned food to refill their empty shelves in anticipation of winter in north Texas.  CCA locally supplies the needy in our communities with over $1.1 million dollars of food each year.

So, are there a few cans of tuna in your pantry? Drop them off at the upper school as you bring students to and from campus.   Charity is defined as the giving of help to those in need; helping those less fortunate than we.  That is love.  What does it look like?  Augustine defined it as “It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks like.”  A ton of tuna looks like love!
