Mohawk FFA hosted Bring Your Own Box, an event which encouraged students to camp out in a cardboard box to stimulate the challenges of being homeless.
Members raised $1,000 in donations from local businesses to sponsor the event and to purchase gifts for families in need during the holidays. Students also collected about 200 pounds of canned food for the Sycamore Food Pantry.
At the camp-out, students heard from Sycamore Mayor Matt Boucher and his wife, Jennifer, about the importance of being involved within the community and helping those in need.
