The Department of Senior Affairs, Volunteers in Action (VIA) program is partnering with AmeriCorps Seniors, Foster Grandparent Program (FGP) which enables volunteers, 55 & up, to be mentors and tutors in local classrooms.
To thank our educators, we would like to kick off the new school year with a care package containing extra school supplies and some additional goodies for them.
What better way to recognize their hard work by donating school supplies the following self-care-oriented items:
- Reusable lunch tote
- Coffee mug/thermos
- Relaxing face masks / bath bombs etc.
- Gift card to a car wash, local diner, or grocery store etc.
- School supplies to supplement their budget; expo markers, tissues, kid scissors, glue sticks, crayons, colored pencils, etc.
