#HarmonyCares - Support Harmony Families affected by Houston Flooding
As the Superintendent of Harmony Public Schools, I would like to express my deepest sympathy for the families who have been affected from the unimaginable disaster this past week. Some of our students and families are in need of our support. The money raised will be used to assist the Harmony families that have been affected. We will be extremely grateful for your donation. Thank you so much for your generosity.
