You did it!! Enough funds were raised in our 36-hour 'Joplin Relief' effort so that we can send over $10,000 worth of supplies to the many students in need of help. The wonderful outpouring of your generosity will allow us to send them:
1,440 binders
10,000 folders
5,040 spiral notebooks
8,400 pencils
12,000 pens
1,000 packs of colored markers
2,000 highlighters
2,000 rulers
2,000 glue sticks
500 packets of construction paper
These supplies will surely come in handy for the 6,978 students who attended classes on Wednesday, August 17th. The supplies won't erase the memory of seven students and one staff member who tragically died on that fateful May 22nd day but they will allow everyone to move forward in their studies.
Many thanks to each of you!
Dick
