Glenwood’s annual Thanksgiving Pie Sale is here! Let us take care of your Thanksgiving and holiday baking for you! These crowd-favorite pies are handmade from scratch using only the finest ingredients by the renowned Little Pie Company - delivered fresh from NYC right to Millburn/Short Hills. 

Purchase your Thanksgiving pies now or donate a pie to a local food pantry for the holidays! This sale is open to everyone, so tell your family and friends. Find details and order HERE.

Thanksgiving Food Drive

 

Now through November 18th, Glenwood will be working together with all Millburn Schools to collect, assemble, and distribute Thanksgiving meals to those in need in our community. Please join us by donating canned and boxed food according to this list.

In addition to your donation of food, we are asking for a minimum cash donation of $5 per student so that we can provide each family with a ShopRite gift certificate to purchase a turkey, produce and other perishable food items.  

There will be collection boxes outside of the classrooms and a collection table just outside the main office. We will also organize car line collections during the event! Details provided on the food drive web page.
