  • Good morning TE!  We are a part of the H.E.R.O.E.S. Club.  Our name stands for Helping Every Rank Over Every Sea, and that’s what we are asking you to do – help our officers who are working to help us.  We have a fundraiser happening at school right now, and we need your help. It’s time to give back to those who fight to keep our country safe and protect our freedoms.  Our plan is to create care packages to send to our active troops.  What we need from you are donations to fill the packages. If you have any non-perishable food items, travel toiletries, or entertainment items like playing cards, board games that you would like to donate – just add it to the box in your team hallway labeled, “Military Care Package Donation Box”. We will also have a poster put up in your team hallway so that you can see the items we are accepting for donation.  These are items  that our troops would greatly appreciate. Thank you for helping us help our HEROS!!
