Thank You from Cary Reynolds Elementary
Dear Dr. Neely,
On behalf of Cary Reynolds Elementary, thank you for your generous contribution of clothing donated to our students. Due to our fragile economy, our families struggle to put food on the table and clothes on their children. We often realize some of our children only have one to two changes of clothes and they have to share with their siblings. With the cold days ahead, your contribution will bring genuine smiles and warmth to our children. Thank you for thinking of us.
Sincerely,
Patricia Domin, R.N. B.S.N. Cary Reynolds Elementary School School Nurse
* Unclaimed items from OGE's Lost & Found were donated.
