Oak Ridge has committed students and staff that truly care about our neighbors that struggle daily to make ends meet.  The junior varsity and varsity cheerleaders will all participate.

“It is great to see our Oak Ridge students coming together to raise awareness about hunger in our county and to support the fantastic efforts of the Food Bank of El Dorado County.  We are looking forward to an exciting evening at our Tackle Hunger football game,” said Paul Burke, ORHS Principal.

Rolling Hills Christian Church has been key in helping organize the annual event.  Staff and volunteers have assisted in the preparation of prior to and organization for the night of the big event.

“God has a great big heart for people in need and so does Rolling Hills Christian Church. Tackle Hunger gives us a chance to partner with two great organizations, Food Bank of El Dorado County and Oak Ridge High School, to show this community God's great love,Bill Search, Senior Pastor, Rolling Hills Christian Church.
