MANUAL MARKET
Manual is where we nourish the mind, body and soul

Donate to MANUAL MARKET

The Manual Market was established in 2017 and has seen overwhelming support from our alumni community, our greater Whittier community and the staff and students at Manual. We aimed to begin a movement on campus where the Whole Child can be cared for and students and their families benefit from nutritious meals and snacks outside of school.
In 2019, The Manual Market became a Partner Agency with Food Bank of the Rockies and during the pandemic of 2020 the Manual Market launched a home delivery program with volunteers delivering food directly to families every Friday.
What began as a snack drawer in the school nurse's office has turned into a thriving Market where our community can nourish its mind, body and soul.
What we need (besides financial support):

• Food and hygiene items (specifically shelf-stable food donations-granola bars, pasta, canned food, and feminine hygiene products, toothpaste, deodorant, shampoo/conditioner, body wash, lotion, chapstick, etc.)
• Volunteers to help organize shelves of the Market at the school
• Volunteers on Fridays for food box delivery - we meet Friday at noon to deliver food to families

To donate items or to volunteer, contact Nurse Lucy Roberts at lucy_roberts@dpsk12.org.
