Cass Co. Democrats donate school supplies
August 10th, 2014 by Ric Hanson
School will be starting soon, and the Cass County Democratic Party wants to help elementary-age children whose families are struggling financially. On August 5th, Sherry Toelle, Chair of the Cass County Democratic Party, presented Larry Hunt, CAM Elementary Principal, with school supplies ranging from pencil-top erasers to rulers to school bags.
Toelle said “The Cass County Democrats want to share their party’s values. We like to give people, especially our most vulnerable—children, a hand up in order for them to achieve their potential and to feel good about themselves. By donating these school supplies, we are giving children who might not be able to have new school bags or other supplies that opportunity.”
Mr. Hunt will distribute the supplies between children at both elementary schools—Anita and Massena.
