Daycare Helps Flood Victims
Owners of an Olin Daycare wanted to give to community members affected by the recent flooding. They researched the Red Cross website for a listing of contents that should be included in a clean up kit. The search was then on to find the items for the kits. They went to multiple stores, many who were already sold out of supplies. But they were determined and gathered supplies wherever they could be found. Each kit is worth about $60 and the daycare purchased 30 complete kits as well as $200 in additional items. The owner said, “You can never have too much bleach in a situation like this. We were not affected but we know a lot of people who were and a few of the kids who come to my daycare were affected. We just want to help them get their houses back to as much as normal as we can.” Source: Elsa Hirl
