 OSOB Charity Donation Information


Greetings Mike Mountain Horse families!




We sincerely hope that you are enjoying our One School, One Book selection: Crenshaw by Katherine Applegate. A great many themes surface in this remarkable read, and, as you may have already noticed, there are also some very sensitive topics addressed. Though sometimes difficult to discuss, hardship and homelessness are realities in today’s world and we encourage you to take these opportunities to engage in conversation with your child (children) about these concepts. What better way to learn than through quality literature?



With awareness of poverty and homelessness growing, we invite our school population to participate in two charity efforts for local individuals and families in need:



1) Donations of personal care items and/or packages for YWCA Harbour House.

YWCA Harbour House provides shelter and care for families in crisis.

Items to donate or include in a large Ziploc freezer bag: (see display case across from office)

*full size shampoo and conditioner

*first aid supplies (i.e. band-aids and ointment)

*toothbrushes and toothpaste

*deodorant/antiperspirant

*hand lotion

*slippers for women and children



~ITEMS CAN BE BROUGHT IN TO CLASSROOM TEACHERS ON OR BEFORE
WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 15TH.



2) Monetary donations in the form of sponsorship as our school participates in the ‘Coldest Night of the Year’ walk taking place on the afternoon of February 15th (held in conjunction with our annual ‘Winter Walk)’. This fundraising effort will benefit Streets Alive Mission which battles poverty in Lethbridge and the surrounding communities by offering free services, clothing and aid to anyone who needs it.




~MONEY CAN BE BROUGHT IN TO CLASSROOM TEACHERS ON OR BEFORE
WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 15TH.
