This holiday season, North and South Esk Regional High School students and staff are sponsoring three local organizations: Miramichi SPCA, the Miramichi Community Food Bank, and Metepenagiag Food Bank. All of these organizations rely on the kindness and charity of others to provide services to those in need in our community. Each organization has a Wish List and our goal is to provide them with some of the items they need to support those they serve.
