School Clinic is There for Me!
Funded Oct 24, 2023You've been a big part of our schools funding over the years. We can't thank you enough for your support as a donor. As our district faces financial struggles your donation helps tremendously! Im so thankful that I can still provide the necessities to care and provide first aid treatment for GES.
In the nurses office I see a high volume of students needing first aid care and routine Doctor ordered treatments. Most of our students don't get the treatments and care at home and to be able to provide that here with gives me the satisfaction that their needs are being met.
When our materials arrived student were so ecstatic to have our supplies stocked for their needs.”

Healthy Hair Because We Care
Funded Jan 19, 2023My students and I are very thankful for the supplies we received with your donations. Before our healthy hair project there wasn't anything I could do here at school to help get rid of headlice or to help prevent them from spreading to others. Our only option was to send a note home with student to let the parents know about our "no lice policy" and educational material on how to get rid of them at home. With this note students couldn't return to school until live lice were gone.
I knew that we could provide families with resources to get Lice treatments but there was still something I wanted to have at school to help, even if it was just a little, to get rid of the headlice and prevent them from spreading. Creating this project meant a lot to my students and I because with the right tools and materials I knew that I could also help them at school and student would be one step closer to being lice free.
We would like to give a huge THANK YOU to you again for your donation!”

Staying Organized for 22-23
Funded Sep 20, 2022I cannot thank you enough for funding my project. Since then, my student have been using our first aid supplies on a daily. Our supplies came at just the perfect time. During these cold winter temperatures, our asthmatic students are being monitored with the help of the oximeter donated.
Our non-adhesive pads are being used for larger cuts and scrapes and students love that it isn't as painful to remove than a regular Band-Aid.
Because of your donation teachers and student helpers now are able to carry band aids in class for all the minor cuts without having to lose class time to see the school nurse.
Thank you again for the support. I truly could not do this on my own.”
