TESCA will be extending the donation/pledges component of the Read A Thon until Monday Sept. 24th at 6am. Due to the recent devastation from Hurricane Florence, we would like to donate what we can for the communities and families of NC who desperately need our help. TESCA will be partnering with the organization Operational Airdrop to donate 10% of all Paypal donations made through the TESCA website now until Monday morning at 6am. We will also be collecting critical supplies needed at next Thursday’s Popsicle Social at Gold Park at 3:15 to be donated through this organization and their partners.
Operation Airdrop is a Texas Non-Profit Organization. They were founded in the wake of Hurricane Harvey in 2017 and have organized volunteer aircraft owners and pilots to deliver essential supplies to disaster areas in hours, rather than days. We have several of our own parents who have been working with them over the last couple days and have raved about the leadership and the impact this organization has had in our state. For more information go to https://www.operation-airdrop.com/.
In addition, these are the critical items needed at this time and will be collecting these next Thursday at Gold Park at 3:15; Canned food, Baby formula, Menstruation products, Nonperishable food, Baby food, Bleach, Clorox wipes, Snacks, Protein bars and Shakes. We will not be turning any items away but these are considered the biggest priorities at this time.
