Awesome... we have been filling backpacks with school supplies for the children of our friends and neighbors so they will be ready to go when school starts this coming week... and half of our living room is still stacked full of spiral notebooks and other school supplies... I did the math and the loads Harold brought down two weeks ago and this weekend came out to be at about 1200 spiral notebooks... we have also bought books for the english classes that are being taught at La Esperanza Para Nueva Vida AC Community Center... these classes have opened the door to jobs at the Bodega for 4 of the students that have participated in the classes because they were able to speak english...
Barb and I will be busy next week running supplies to the schools in our Adopt-A-Classroom program... this will be the 9th year in which we have been supplying the basics such as spiral notebooks, pencils, crayons, rulers, glue and crafting materials and various other items for the children and we hope we can continue to do so for many more years to come...
Thank You, Thank You, Thank You, to all who have donated or participated in one of our fund raising events... we couldn't do this without your support... Together we are making a difference in the lives of some of the less fortunate children of Rocky Point...
