Take Action

I know a good number of you who read the blog have children in grade school, middle school/junior high and/or high school.  They can help us collect supplies for children-in-need in Chicago and Harvey even if their school doesn't do it on a school wide basis.  It's pretty easy!!

Simply have your son/daughter approach their individual teachers and ask them if they can collect binders and spirals on the last day (or other day) of class.  The students who have binders, spirals and the like can clean them out in the class and your children collects them for each class.    The point about classmates tearing out pages that are damaged and written on is a key element to making the collection a smooth process.

This method could result in quite a haul especially if your/son daughter can convince their friends to do the same!!  Think of how many items could be collected in this simple manner.

Yes, your son/daughter may well (likely) have too many items to bring home.  All you have to do is to let me know and I will come to their school, at a mutually agreeable time and date, to pick up the supplies.

Please give it some thought and ask your kids to pitch in and help others!!

Thanks,
Dick
