Greetings, Elfsea, Xene here.
Please read below. Our school nurse (Darla) and counselor (Ina) are asking
for help for the sweetest little girl I have ever met. She and her family
have been camping out since January. I know that Mom is also going through
a divorce as well.
If you have anything you would like to donate, please e-mail or see me at
the event.
Thank you.
p.s. this is what good teachers really do!
