Dear Families,

Happy Friday! Thank you to Suma and Andrea’s PreK class and both Jess and Louise’s and Elyssa and Kimberly’s kindergarten classes for performing at community meeting this morning.

I also want to thank all the families who have brought in clothing and toiletry donations this week. We are so grateful for the physical items community members have donated so far. Now that we have received those items, we need to purchase other supplies that we have identified as urgently needed. Right now the greatest need is for monetary donations so that we can purchase the items we need in bulk. Once the pantry is set up in the next few weeks, it will be open on a schedule to all CWS families so that they may utilize the pantry at no extra cost to serve their needs as they arise.

We are partnering the PTA to support this effort to establish the CWS Community Clothing Pantry. The PTA has setup a GoFundMe to collect monetary donations. If you are interested in financially supporting the pantry and our most urgent needs, please donate. Feel free to share this GoFundMe link with your family and friends who are also interesting in supporting our community. 

I am so grateful for the generosity and welcoming spirit of our CWS families, teachers, and staff. You are what makes CWS so special!

Warmly,

Maria
