Psi Iota xi 
Elementary School Drive

Join in for the 2026 Psi Iota Xi Knox County Elementary School Drive sponsored by the help of Psi Iota Xi Sorority. All donations will benefit the 45th annual Food For The Hungry Drive. 

 

Mount Vernon District Elementary Schools, Mount Vernon Middle School, as well as Centerburg, Danville, and East Knox elementary schools, will join the sorority’s collection efforts, and each classroom will be supplied with collection boxes. Donations can be made from Monday, November 16, through Friday, November 20. The Top Five Food Items Needed are Canned Fruit/Vegetables, Soup (pop-top cans or packages preferred), Canned Meals (ravioli, Spaghetti-Os, and the like), Baked Beans, and Canned Meat.​

​

Though non-food donations are welcome, cash donations are encouraged because $1 donated is equivalent to $4.56 of buying power through the Mid-Ohio Collective. Checks should be made payable to Food For The Hungry. All donations stay in Knox County. These students are asked to demonstrate the idea that no one is too young to make a difference and that the community is better when we work together!

​

As in the past, the classroom in each participating school that contributes the highest number of food items per student will be treated to pizza, sponsored by Psi Iota Xi. Each $1 donated will be equal to 4 food items.  

The top donor from each school will be honored in the Food For The Hungry Live Broadcast at the Knox County Memorial Building on Friday, Dec. 11. The students will be recognized on our live video stream at www.wnzr.tv, as well as on 100.9 FM and 93.7 HD2 - WMVO, with reports given on WNZR and 93.7 the Super Q. ​
