Now that May is upon us, it won't be long until the school year comes to an end. And with it comes the opportunity for schools, staff and students of Chicago-area schools to provide daily resources, left unused or partly used, for our 'Go Green' program.
Many schools in the suburbs are already a part of this program this spring. Among those participating are those in Mokena, Hinsdale, Naperville and Darien. Our 'Go Green' program is seeking 'gently used' or new supplies that can be donated to Schools Count Corp so that we, in turn, can provide them to students in need in Chicago and New Orleans.
We are in need of binders, loose leaf paper, pens, pencils, notebooks, composition books, 3-prong folders, rulers, colored markers, scissors, and colored pencils. Schools Count will be glad to come to your school to pick up these items as a convenient time for both parties.
To be a part of this exciting program of keeping perfectly good students supplies out of a landfill and to get them in the hands of students who really will use them simply contact Dick Flesher at rich219@comcast.net. I will be sure to give you all the information needed to make such a collection worthwhile for all concerned.
Many thanks,
Dick
