Clinton Family Needs Help

Posted Monday, February 1, 2010 by PTA.

Sadly, a Clinton family, with three children at our school, lost their home in a fire this weekend. We would like to do whatever we can to help them during this very difficult time and will be taking donations on their behalf.
Their home is uninhabitable and they are currently staying at a hotel.

If you would like to help, please consider donating a gift card

(Target) or a grocery store gift card. You can send these to school with your children in an envelope marked “Clinton PTA” and we will get them to the family. If you’d rather give cash, we ask that you do that in person, perhaps first thing in the morning and give it directly to Ann Bodnar, Assistant to the Principal.

We are also accepting clothing donations of clean, seasonally appropriate items. The three children in the family who are Clinton students are the size of a 3rd and 4th grade boy and a 5th grade girl.

They also have two siblings (a preschooler and a high school age brother). If we get more specific information regarding sizes we will pass it on.

Donations can be left in the front hallway of Clinton School, near the boxes where we collect food for our food pantry.

It’s been a rough few months for several Clinton families and as always, our school community always manages to be there to help in whatever we can. Please do what you can to help in this situation, and thanks, as always, for your support.
