Thanks for School Supplies

Posted September 2nd, 2010 by Terri McHugh

District 54 would like to thank the many Scout troops, businesses and organizations who donated school supplies for our students in need this year.

AT&T Illinois Northwest Council Pioneers once again donated hundreds of backpacks filled with supplies. The Hoffman Estates Chamber of Commerce hosted its annual school supply drive and donated not only supplies, but also gift cards so that our schools could buy exactly what the students needed. Parkway Realty Services, eKiwanis the Disney Vacation Club store at Woodfield Mall and Nerge Girl Scout troops also all made a large contribution to our students.

Thanks to the generosity of the people who live and work in our community, hundreds of students – who would have come to school empty-handed – received some of the nicest supplies at their school.
