Dear Parents/Guardians,

As part of our Advent celebration, our class is providing a Christmas basket

for a family in need. In adopting the family the students will help by:
bringing in food and a money donation which will be used to purchase
Christmas gifts and any remaining food needed, such as a turkey for
Christmas dinner.
The family that our classes will be helping this year consists of:
-A mother
-A 5 year old boy (clothing size 7-8, shoe size 2)
-A 4 year old girl (clothing size 6-7)
We are asking that each student help out by donating food for a meal and a money donation to
go towards the gifts and turkey dinner.
