Books and Backpacks Service Project

Dear Parents, October 23, 2024

 

        As we already know, Hurricane Helene’s destruction reached catastrophic proportions.  In the wake of the aftermath, it is important to give back and help those in need.  With that being said, the fifth and second grade Honeybees are participating in a service project with NC Moms to Moms.  Our goal is to provide new school supplies, backpacks (new or clean/gently used), and books (new or gently used), and a handwritten note of encouragement to students in Yancey County, NC, whose families were hit extremely hard.  Our project will run from Oct. 24th-Oct. 30th.  If you would like to donate, please bring in the following items:

 

  •          Backpacks (new or clean/gently loved)
  •          Books (new or gently loved)
  •          Essential School Supplies: crayons, pencils, manual pencil sharpeners, spiral notebooks (please only purchase the ones on the list)     

 

      If you would like to contribute in other ways, you can order from their wish lists included on the back of this letter or visit https://mom2momnccomdomainonly.wordpress.com/books-backpacks/.  We are excited to help our neighbors in need.  Your donations are greatly appreciated.  Because time is of the essence, please bring items no later than Wednesday, Oct. 30th so we can get the items to NC Moms to Moms for distribution.  Thank you in advance for your kindness and generosity.  Please see additional information on the back of this letter.

 

Thank you,

5th and 2nd grade teachers
