Happy Labor Day! And thank you to 6th grade teacher Brandi Pearson and the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., the Epsilon Beta Omega Chapter of Spartanburg’s Uplift Our Local Community Program Initiative Committee, and the Connection and Social Action Committee.

These items included soaps, toothbrushes, toothpastes, deodorant, hand sanitizers, lotions and wipes.
Thank you, Mr. Kay, for approving the donation. Thank you to the guidance counselors and nurse for distributing these items to the students as needed. ❤️
