Cayce sixth-grader Mackenna Maddox had already set quite a record.

The student at Busbee Creative Arts Academy previously collected 1,510 canned foods and other items in the school’s food drive as part of the Cayce Cares Project. When the drive rolled back around a couple weeks ago, she was determined to beat that mark.

And she did.

With help from classmates, she hauled in 1,812 donations. Per a press release from Lexington School District 2, items and pledges of money to shop for food came from as far away as Maryland, Pennsylvania and Boston.

Busbee’s food drive continues through Dec. 1. The campaign has brought in an estimated 2,000-plus items so far.

“Mackenna is just one of hundreds of Lexington Two students giving back this holiday season to help those in need through donation campaigns at various district schools,” the release says. “Individuals, churches, businesses and other or ganizations are invited to help schools in their holiday drives by dropping off donations at any Lexington Two school.”

Included with the news of Maddox’s latest accomplishment is a list of other holiday drives at District 2 schools:
