Stuffed Animals, Coloring Books & Crayons

As part of NLCA's Spirit Week celebration, each class will participate in a community service project from February 2-6. Sixth grade's project is to collect small stuffed animals, coloring books, and crayons for children visiting the emergency room at Summerville Regional Medical Center. 

Due to the nature of the distribution, all items must be new. Items will be given to the emergency room and handed out by the nursing staff. 

I am very excited about this project, as I hope these items will bring some comfort to each recipient. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. Together, we can bring smiles to the faces of children in our local hospital!
