Do the Math!


HSP would like to thank a generous private donor for a number of Texas Instruments scientific calculators. Thanks to the donation, HSP was able to get the calculators out to families with children who needed them for the new school year. The calculators will allow students to do much more than simply crunch numbers, as they have functions useful for algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. We’d like to thank the donor for helping us equip students to learn this year, and we wish good luck to all the math students helped by the donation, whether they will be wrestling with radicals and cosines or plain old multiplication this year.


We at HSP would like to thank the donor of the calculators, and all of those who donated supplies to our School Supply Drive this past summer. Thanks to all of your support HSP managed to get school supplies out to hundreds of needy children for this school year. With the school year already in full swing, our School Supply Drive is slowing down, but that doesn’t mean there are no donations needed at HSP. These calculators managed to help seven people on our list, but we still have a wait list for supplies such as these. HSP has a number of year long, and seasonal, programs that help area families and senior citizens in need. If you have anything from soup to nuts (or calculators) that you would like to donate please call us at 630-221-8340 to see if it could be used to fill a need.
