Dear Parents and Students,
Each year Prairieview runs a service project around the holidays. Our efforts will benefit two organizations: a cancer family and a family shelter.
Each classroom at Prairieview has a family that is in need at this time.
In addition to the cancer families, we will also be making donations to Family Shelter Service.
This year our class has a very special family.
Our family includes:
~Mom
~17 year old young lady (cancer patient)
~16 year old sister
~15 years old sister
~10 year old sister
~3 year old sister
Sadly, the seventeen year old girl has cancer. Not only does this family struggle with the stress of treatments and illness, but they are less fortunate than us financially, too. In order to make this a special holiday, we have “adopted” them. If you could send in a NEW, not used, present for one or more of the family members, that would be appreciated. You may also send a “family gift.”
Directions:
*Please wrap the gift
*LABEL the item with what it is with a Post-It.
*Label who it is for
Some ideas for NEW (not used) gifts include, but are not limited to:
age appropriate games/toys, books, crafts, puzzles, winter hat/gloves, socks, winter hat/gloves, socks, bath and body, perfume, jewelry, candles, kitchen accessories, picture frames/albums, gift certificates,
gift baskets, slippers, etc.
Gift cards to consider:
Jewel, Best Buy, Kohl’s, Wal-Mart, Target, Toys R Us, K-Mart, Sears, JC Penney’s, Carson Pierre Scott, Chili’s, TGIFridays, Subway, McDonalds, Burger King, ETC.
These gifts will be delivered before Christmas along with a freshly cut tree donated by Strong Landscaping.
Gift for the Family Shelter
We are accepting Cash or checks (payable to Family Shelter Service) gift cards in any denomination. NEW toys, games, books, puzzles, sports equipment, jewelry/other accessories, warm gloves and hats.
Thanks for your support!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Spakausky
