Despite the fact teh Club is now meeting soely via Zoom and the status of the start of the school year in Philadlephia, members, under the dedicated organization of Alan Agree, have been collecting hundreds of dollars worth of school supplies which will be delivered to the Williasm Dick School this coming week.
We are well aware that many school systems are ill-equipped due to an uprecedented lack funding stemming from the COVID-19 fallout … and those in the most economically-challenged section of Philadelphia being impacted the hardest. Our hope is that our donations will provide some relief and possibly free up other funds which otherwise would hav eto be committed to purchasing supplies.
A specail thanks to Jerry Redington and his $100 cash donation for supplies,
Nancy and Alan Agree
