Our District’s Families in Need Program is designed to help families within our school district who are having difficulty meeting the immediate needs of their children. We are thankful for the Loaves and Fishes Food Pantry for fulfilling food (year round) and toys (for the holidays) for our community.
If you are in need of a clothing box for this holiday season for your child or children, please go to the following link to sign up: https://tinyurl.com/42je2as8
If you are interested in supporting our Families in Need Program, there are two ways to do so:
1. You can sign up to “adopt” a child or children. This means you are willing to purchase clothing for each child/children you are adopting. We ask that you please purchase, at minimum, 3-4 tops and 3 bottoms for the child/children you adopt. The overall anticipated cost is $60-90 per child. We will contact you on November 21st regarding the interests and sizing for the child/children you adopt.
OR
2. Donate monetarily (our team will make the purchases needed for these families with your monies donated). Please submit your donations by December 8th to either school office under: Brookwood Schools - FIN c/o: Helen Xiong, 1020 Hunters Ridge Drive, Genoa City, Wi 53128.
To sign up to support our Families in Need Program, please go to the following link: https://tinyurl.com/mr3v7aw7 or contact Helen Xiong directly at Helen.Xiong@gcj2.k12.wi.us
