Teaming Together to help rebuild schools after Hurricane Harvey in Texas

Hello parents,

As you all know, Houston was devastated by Hurricane Harvey a couple of weeks ago. I would love for our class to team together and help restock classrooms that lost everything! I emailed someone at Victoria Independent School District in Texas and asked her what they are still in need of. Here was her email reply:


Hi, Ms. Breiner!

Thank you for reaching out to us.  We have been blessed with donations from across our great nation and it is such a comfort to us all to know everyone is praying and rooting for us!  Our families’ current needs are for gift cards or monetary donations to help with groceries, washing laundry and gasoline.  We are still in need of colored pencils and the 100 page composition books and/or poly plastic folders with pockets and fasteners.

Blessings,
Yvonne Rossman- VIctoria Independent School District

I underlined the last sentence because this is how we can help restock their classrooms :) If you are willing to donate any of these items, please send them in with your child by next Friday. I will ship all of them directly to Yvonne. This is a great way to directly impact the victims of Hurricane Harvey! I will be emailing school districts in Florida soon to ask how we can help from the devastation of Hurricane Irma.
