Tyler ISD’s Success Partner, Vexus Fiber, held a Summer Food Drive at its South Broadway location for the Three Lakes Middle School Care Closet it proudly sponsors. The effort resulted in thousands of much-needed items for students.
“Vexus is proud to be an ongoing supporter of Tyler ISD through our Success Partnership,” Regional Vice President of Operations at Vexus Fiber Cameron Miller said. “One of our pillars as a company is being community builders, and we’re proud to honor that in Tyler. When we can contribute to the well-being of students in our region that means even more to us.”
The Three Lakes Care Closet was created so counselors had an ongoing place to store items of immediate need for students. Several large donations were made in the summer months and delivered to the campus. The campus requested five specific kid-friendly, easy-to-prepare items.
The number of items collected and donated include:
Mac and Cheese Cups – 1,500+
Pudding Cups – 1,700+
Fruit Cups – 1,700+
Oatmeal Packets – 2,200+
Noodle Cups – 3,000+
Vexus also sponsors Care Closets for Rice and Jack elementary schools, Hubbard Middle School, and Legacy High School.
