Our playground is over 30 years old, has broken parts, and is inaccessible to some students. With your help, we now have secure storage containers so we can store toys and activities to help engage all students. Our amazing PTO filled the bins with various activities from balls to jump ropes so students can enjoy playing together.\r\n\r\nYour kindness has created a more secure, organized, and joyful recess experience for our entire school community.

This allows the school staff and myself the ability to observe the changes that come from the monthly \"gift\". We watch and discuss any behavioral changes we see from self-confidence to peer relationships. I am thrilled to report that the students who benefit from this program begin to improve academically, socially, and most importantly they thrive with feeling better about themselves.\r\n\r\nPlease know that your donations have improved the lives of many children who, for many different reasons, would not have had the opportunity to obtain these products and change their lives.
