Yesterday HSP received donations from two local high
schools, Downers Grove South High
School and the Spanish Honors Society
of Geneva High School. Both schools expressed their dedication to reaching out
to the community. The HSP team is excited to add the donated items to packages
that are sent out monthly to seniors in need.
The first donation received was from
Downers Grove South. They have been a steadfast supporter of HSP and contribute
greatly through food drives. Yesterday, Jay Baum, a teacher and basketball
coach at Downers Grove South, dropped off 12 boxes and 4 bags full of
nonperishable items, which were collected by students. They have done a lot for
HSP recently and we appreciate all of their efforts. We are thankful for their
willingness to provide items and donations so we can better serve needy
seniors. Thank you, Downers Grove South, for your continuous support and
donations!
Our
second donation came from the Spanish Honors Society of Geneva High School.
Gina Nolan, a teacher at Geneva ,
dropped off paper products (paper towels, toilet paper, and Kleenex), which
filled the trunk and back seat of her car. A few of the paper products are
pictured to the right. Geneva High
School responded to our need for more
paper products for our Senior Program, which we are very excited about! HSP
thanks the Spanish Honors Society of Geneva High School for responding to our
need for paper products and for your generous donation.
Everyone
at HSP is thankful for all the time and work that went into planning a drive to
collect food and paper products. HSP is fortunate to have local schools that
are eager and willing to respond to the call of action. In addition to
donations, HSP looks for volunteers for our other projects.
