Students at Deanna Davenport Elementary set out to pay it forward and collect toiletries for people in need. In partnership with the Elks Lodge #187, fifth graders collected about 700 basic hygiene products such as toilet paper, toothpaste/brushes, shampoo/conditioner, & body wash.
Members of the Elks Lodge #187 picked up the items and congratulated the students Wednesday, March 21, 2018. The items will assist local organizations serving low-income families, homeless & transitional living centers, veterans organizations, family & children’s violence centers, elderly care and persons with disabilities organizations.
