A big thank you to all of the PeaceBuilders "Helping Others" in our community!
From Nurse Emily
Although each child should have an extra set of clothes in their backpack, there are still cases when clothes are needed in the health room, especially elastic waistband pants and leggings. If you have any to donate that your kids have outgrown, they would be appreciated.
