A Touch of Home
In 1996, I decided that I wanted to give something back to the community. After checking with the Clark County School District, I discovered that no agency was addressing the needs of the Clark County School District’s Homeless Education Division, which has thousands of children enrolled in their program. To help with this great need, I created “A Touch of Home”. I collect new, unwrapped toys and various necessities and the Homeless Education Office, now “Title One” of Clark County School District, sees that they are delivered during the holidays, and throughout the year to the children most in need of a little cheer.
The Homeless Education Office of Clark County School District has a huge job on their hands. They keep track of the children, and try to provide them with basic necessities so that they may attend school, even though they do not have a “residence”. Many of these children live in shelters, or even a car or a tent. This department also assists families that have secured temporary housing, and those living in certain trailer parks.
In addition to providing holiday gifts, the school district has request certain basic items which they are in need of year round. These items include:
|
Soap
|
Trial size lotions
|
Trial size shampoos
|
|
Trial size toothpaste
|
Toothbrushes
|
Trial size mouthwash
|
|
Dental Floss
|
Hand towels
|
Hand sanitizer
|
|
Sunscreen
|
Socks (various sizes)
|
Gift certificates to fast food restuarants
|
|
Wal-Mart gift cards
|
Target gift cards
|
Grocery store food gift certificates
|
