Another hero in our midst!

Just like everyone else we have had to make adjustments this year at Rise Above Poverty. One of the adjustments is connecting with our schools during COVID. With the district limiting entrance to non-essential staff we haven’t been in contact with our usual number of schools. Fortunately, we work with some awesome people who continue to find ways to ensure our students have the things they need although they are at home. One of those heroes is Lynette from H.W. Smith Pre-k -8 school. Today, we were able to donate 200 pairs of socks, 140 pairs of new underwear, 50 t-shirts, 40 sticks of deodorant, and 60 toothbrushes and tubes of toothpaste.
