About:
“These Garden City students held not one, but FOUR school supply drives for INN guests going back to both the physical and virtual classroom! They collected hundreds of supplies and hope that someone will keep it going after they graduate.”
There are 6 of us athletes who helped with the school supply drive.
We held one each year of high school. Each year was about five hours worth of work each between making pickups, sorting, unpacking, packing, and making the big drop off.
We wanted to help The Inn because we are fortunate enough to not have to worry about buying school supplies, and we didn’t want any child to have to worry about not having the ability to get school supplies to get an education. So we collected as much as we could to give to those in need.
