WildcatSERVE is sponsored by both the Finneytown Secondary and Elementary PTAs, and supported by the entire community. Working closely with the district social worker and other staff members, the goal is to assist students enrolled in the Finneytown Local School District, and their families, with basic needs such as food and household/hygiene products. Our main projects exist at Thanksgiving and Christmas, but we also meet needs as they arise throughout the school year.
Back to School Donations
As the 2021-22 school year approaches, we are coordinating donations of frequently used items to begin the school year. There will be drop-off boxes at the open houses.
We are asking for individually wrapped snacks that can be used in the elementary buildings and distributed as needed by the counselors.
We are also asking for the most frequently used school supplies to assist some families as well as gift cards that could be used for
gas or perishable items.

Thank You Finneytown!
Thank you from WildcatSERVE to the many individuals who blessed Finneytown families this year by donating time, goods, and money. Many students and their families were provided food and gifts as a part of the PTA's holiday basket programs. It was truly a community effort!
There were so many organizations, individuals, and families that contributed to the success of our food baskets and gifts in 2020
