School Supply Donations!

Remember that tornado that ripped through North Minneapolis earlier this summer? Just checking, because I feel like that tragedy has often been overlooked as summer has moved on. But summer has moved on, and the start of a new school year is just around the corner and the community of North Minneapolis could benefit from the donation of school supplies. With homes to repair, and lives to piece back together, school supplies are not at the top of every family’s shopping list.

If you have any of the following items you can donate, it would be greatly appreciated:

• Loose-leaf Paper
• Pencils
• Markers
• Folders
• Notebooks
• Binders

My dear friend, Sigrid, is a teacher at Lucy Laney, and I’m making it my personal goal to donate 10 binders with necessary supplies. I know her and her students would appreciate anything you might be able to donate. Donations can be taken/sent directly to the school:
