School supplies for District X
About six weeks ago I interviewed two people from the homeless shelters in District X. In September the schools will be starting again, also for the children in the shelters, but there is a problem and that a great shortage of basic school supplies. Things like pen & pencils, note books, binders, a calculator for the older grades.
I have been doing some research and frankly, the school district does not really care. In Carlifornia there is a program called K to college who supplies basic school supplies to children around the state. I figured we could do something similar. We are talking about 150 children here. I have suppliers we can use.
But now I need your help. First and I hate to ask for this, but all funds would be welcome. And I will need people to put the packages together sometime in August. If we are with enough people, we can do this in an afternoon.
