Brother Can You Spare a Dime?
This was the title of a popular song during the Great Depression. Students on Team 7 Green will soon be learning about that the Great Depression was a very hard time for people in America, including children. Unfortunately, times today are almost as rough for many families as they struggle through tough economic times.
In the spirit of giving during this season, Team 7 Green has decided to help make the holidays a little brighter for a local family. Listed below is information about a family that our team has decided to “adopt”. If you can help in any way, we would greatly appreciate it.
Please send items listed below to school by Monday, December 14. Donations can be new or “gently used”. They can be wrapped or unwrapped. If wrapped, please indicate to which member of the family they are intended. Monetary donations will also be accepted (cash or checks made out to Sperreng Middle School). Please direct all donations to Mrs. Makos.
