My Project

Our after school excellence in education program will be creating Christmas cards for military personnel that are currently serving and having them mailed to them for the holidays. We will also be making thank you cards and collecting snacks for: firefighters, police officers, and those that help protect our local community. We will also be sending thank you cards to other schools in the community to encourage them and say thank you for all that they have done to get the students to where they are today.

Many students do not have an opportunity to get back to the community, nor do they have the opportunity.

The students will also be collecting snacks and candy for our local essential workers.

This gives us an opportunity to show compassion and appreciation for others. Please help us bring a smile to our military personnel, our local community workers, and local educators.
