Forest Ridge is conducting a canned food drive. C3 has set a goal for each of us to bring in 2 non-perishable items. If you can donate great! If not, no worries.

I have another way to give this season. It’s not school related. My church sponsors an orphanage in El Proviner, Mexico. I have gone to Mexico for a number of years to help out another orphanage there. This particular orphanage is the only one within 300 miles who accepts special needs kids. We are doing a penny drive to raise money for this orphanage. I thought this would be a great way for C3 kids to help kids without the same luxuries they have. I have a ton of pictures from the schools and orphanage I went to that I am going to share with the kids. If they would like to donate a few pennies or change great, again if not no big deal. This is strictly voluntary.

School Supplies:
Its that time of year! Pencils are shrinking, and erasers are worn out. Please double check with your student and make sure they have the necessary supplies for the school day. There are a couple of students who need scissors and glue.
