Support the ECCO food drive and the graduation edition
By:
Suzanne Detar, sdetar@thedanielislandnews.com
The Daniel Island News is happy to support East Cooper Community Outreach and our neighbors experiencing food shortages by being a local drop-off location for essential food items.
You can drop off nonperishable food items in the ECCO bin located in our front office vestibule on weekdays from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
ECCO’s needs include: canned fruits and vegetables; cereal, breakfast bars, and oatmeal; dry pasta, canned pasta, and pasta sauce; pancake/waffle mix and grits; beef stew and boxed instant potatoes; canned soup and bagged rice; peanut butter and jelly; macaroni and cheese; canned meat. See more about ECCO food donations on page 10.
GRADUATION EDITION
We always look forward to our graduation edition, where we publish a photo of every graduating senior from local high schools and highlight the top student accomplishments. We include hundreds of photos of local teens.
To recognize every student, we print more pages than our regular advertising revenue can support. To be able to continue this tradition, we’ve created a few ways for businesses as well as friends and family of graduates to participate.
To local business owners, please consider being a sponsor of this edition. You can congratulate students and share your marketing message with thousands of engaged readers.
To parents, family and friends, please consider purchasing a congratulatory message. This edition, which will include your message, will be a lifelong keepsake.
Patrick Villegas (patrick@thedanielislandnews.com) and Ronda Schilling (ronda@thedanielislandnews.com) can help you with sponsorship and congratulatory messages.
SEND SENIOR PHOTOS
Through a partnership with Tumbleston Photography, we have access to all Philip Simmons and Bishop England student photos.
If your BE or PSHS student did not use Tumbleston or if your student is graduating from a school other than BE or PSHS, please send a high-resolution photo of your student, together with proper name spelling to sdetar@thedanielislandnews.com. The deadline to submit photos is Thursday, May 23.
