Just wanted to provide everyone with a quick update on the aid being provided to some of the Houston schools our charity is assisting. Our supplies will go to KIPP Connect where a former Hinsdale Central High School graduate is teaching. KIPP Connect will need some of the supplies and then the school will in turn provide some of the supplies to hard hit schools in the area.
By the way, KIPP Connect has classes this week and that is obviously great news!
KIPP Connect, just that one school, had 30 student families displaced by the hurricane. Some of the teaching staff were also impacted. There was a good deal of poverty among some of the families prior to the devastating storm. All told, the needs are great.
I am still taking CASH donations if you would like to contribute to the cause. You can donate online by going to our website at www.schoolscountcorp.org or sending a check to Dick Flesher, 9550 140th Court, #112, Orland Park, IL. 60462. Kindly make the check payable to Schools Count Corp. and write Texas in the memo section if you would please.
Many thanks,
Dick
