COMMUNITY GIVING TREE
SCHOOL SUPPLIES
SEPTEMBER 2007
|
Hi Mia,
Thanks in part to the efforts of the Middleton Schools, we were able to
collect over 300 new backpacks and fill them with school supplies for
kids ranging from Kindergarten to High School. Social workers from 30
different agencies came to choose backpacks for the families they
help. In addition to the backpacks, they were also able to take bags
of loose school supplies for kids who had backpacks but not supplies.
Students from Lynn, Lawrence, Amesbury, Newburyport, Haverhill, and
even Dorchester received these wonderful donations. Many case workers
had been purchasing school supplies for their clients with their own
money. By looking at their delighted faces, you'll see what a
difference you can make!
Thank you!
Leslie and Betty
