Attention everyone Monroe County FFA chapter is gathering items to take down into flood-affected areas. One of our former members lives in the affected areas and she and her mom are helping us coordinate donation efforts. Let's step up and help these folks in need! It's getting colder and they will need many things to help make it through the upcoming months. Please remember nonperishable items are best as well as cleaning supplies and other items that can be used to help. Please bring items to the vocational school at the shop and drop them off with Mr. Hill or Mr. Boone between 8:00 and 3:30 or contact an FFA member and we will make sure your donation gets to the school!
Below is a list of larger items they still need:
Box Fans
Dehumidifiers
Push Brooms
Buddy Heaters
Lanterns
Sleeping Bags
Let's show them how much we care!
