HLH Awareness

We will celebrate the return of one of our dear 6th grade students, James Delano this coming Monday, October 24th.  We will bring awareness to one of the devastating diseases that plague him.  HLH (hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis) We will be providing informational videos to our students on how this desease affects the body.  September is typically the month for HLH awareness, but we decided to wait until James could see our show of support.  On Monday, we are asking all students and staff to wear blue to bring awareness to this dangerous disease that impacts the life of our very own Navigator, James Delano.  We are also asking each student and staff member who can, to bring $1.00 to donate to research for HLH on Monday as well.  Please be sure to wear blue in honor of James and awareness of HLH.  Thank you for your support.

Shoes for Sugarbelle

 

THANK YOU to all who have been able to send shoes! We are still collecting and would love to beat our goal from last year of 300 pairs! :) 

The Earthsavers/Science Club will be sponsoring Shoes for Sugarbelle this year. Boxes will be set up in the front lobby for collection October 1-31. So, if you have any unwanted shoes, please send them to us! 

Sugarbelle Foundation is a registered 501-c3, whose mission is to keep pets and people together. We accomplish this by providing financial assistance, to the best of our ability, to pet owners and Good Samaritans who have an animal in need, temporary fosters homes, food, and any other necessary items for pets and their people.

All donated shoes are redistributed throughout the Funds2Orgs network of microenterprise partners in developing nations.  Funds2Orgs helps impoverished people start, maintain and grow businesses in countries such as Haiti, Honduras and other nations in Central America and Africa. Proceeds from the shoe sales are in turn to feed, clothe and house their families. Funds2Org believes the HAND UP is more beneficial than the HAND OUT, because it teaches people how to be self sufficient, which is also, what Sugarbelle Foundation strives to do when helping pets and their families.
