Hi GCPS families and friends,
On behalf of the GHS Renaissance Club, we’re asking for your help to support a community that’s going through something we know all too well.
Our Renaissance partners in London, Kentucky were hit by a tornado that destroyed homes, businesses, and an elementary school. That experience hits close to home.
We remember what it was like to lose Page Middle School—and we remember how much it meant when others stepped in to support us.
Now it’s our turn to do the same.
They need clothing, hygiene products, and blankets. We aren’t accepting food, since all donations will be shipped to Kentucky.
We’re collecting items from Tuesday, May 27 through Monday, June 2. You can drop off donations at any GCPS school or at TC Walker Regional Education Center. Let’s come together as a school community. When Gloucester gives, we give with our whole heart.
Thank you for standing with us,
On behalf of the GHS Renaissance Club
Gloucester County Public Schools
