First, we surveyed (A)
Mrs. Evans on how to
choose a field trip that
is appropriate. Mrs. Evans said, “It needs to
match the curriculum
on what they’re learning about.” Then
she said, “It needs to
be safe and not like an
amusement park because you can get
injured,” and no out of
state field trips.

Our Recommendation:
Your donation of $1,000
can assist 400 homeless individuals in
maintaining proper hygienic appearance
and well being. For as
little as $2.31, one person can be given
the daily hygiene supplies that could help
improve their life!

Our Recommendation:
When interviewing for a job, a
clean appearance is a must. In
order to work their way out of
homelessness, individuals must
be given a chance. Your
donation can reach 400
individuals who need a helping
hand. With an improved
appearance, comes a positive
attitude. This attitude will also
lend itself to helping the
homeless overcome their
temporary downfall and
improve their life circumstances.
