Canned Food Drive for Urban Ministries of Durham
Each February, DMWS sponsors a canned food drive to support the Food Pantry at Urban Ministries of Durham. This year, students may bring in canned food items between Feb. 8 and Feb 19. We will line the hallway with the donations and students will be able to use the cans for math activities before we bag them to be donated. Students love seeing the items fill the hallway. Thanks for your support!

Our February Dining Out with DMWS fundraiser night will be at Chipotle (Patterson Place, 15-501 in Durham) on Tuesday, February 16th from 4:00 – 8:00 pm. Please see the flyer for details.
A quick note about this event – Chipotle requires that our event bring in at least $150 in total sales then they will donate 33% back to our school! We need our DWMS families to work together to raise money for our school. Bring a copy of the flyer with you to show to the cashier when you purchase your food.
