RUSD HOLIDAY BASKET PROGRAM
For more than 40 years, Rowland Unified School District has partnered with the Walnut Valley Rotary
and community groups to help RUSD families in need with a Holiday Basket Program that includes all
the necessary ingredients for holiday meal preparations. In addition to canned goods, families receive
fresh produce and dairy items.
Thanks to our Rowland Unified School District Employees; Rowland and Nogales High School Interact
Clubs; and the ASB and Student Leadership Clubs throughout the District, we are pleased to continue
the Holiday Basket Program in 2024.
You can bring your donations to the District Office or any RUSD school site starting
Monday, November 4, and continuing through Friday, December 13, 2024. All donations
collected will be distributed to those in need.
