MISSION
The purpose of Operation Wildcat is to pool the resources of the community
to help school district students, families and staff in need.
HISTORY
In the spring of 2006, the Mechanicsburg Area School District PTOs and Parent Advisory Committee members began Operation Wildcat to help local students and families in need. District administration has provided a storage site for Operation Wildcat at Mechanicsburg Middle School. With the support of the school board, district administration and staff, Operation Wildcat is working to help to pool the MASD community resources to help local families in need on an on-going basis.
If you would like to get involved in, have items to donate to or have questions about Operation Wildcat, please contact Leslie Collins, any of the project coordinators or email us at operationwildcatmasd@gmail.com.
If you need assistance please contact your child's school counselor
