Items Needed for Service Project
The Reicher National Honor Society and Spanish Honor Society will partner with The Blue Star Mothers in an effort to send Christmas Cards and needed supplies to our US troops that have been deployed overseas away from their families during Christmas.
We are currently in need of blank Christmas cards, Christmas stationary, Christmas stickers, and green and red construction paper. We are asking for any donations that you may have sitting around your house toward this effort over the next two weeks. Please feel free to send your donations in to Mrs. Kelly. We plan to write our letters as a school by October 25. If you have any questions, please email kkelly@reicher.org. Many thanks and Muchas Gracias from NHS and SHH!
PS. More information to come on needed toiletry items next week!
