- From Ceri Woodworth: “I delivered your generous donations to Mountain View Elementary School and again, you came through with flying colors! Someone donated medical gloves – perfect! They needed the Tums that very day I delivered them! An organization from the school came and took all her water bottles, so Nurse Stephanie’s eyes lit up when she saw all the bottles! Goldfish – the kids’ favorites! So thank you for your dedication to the school nurse. New ideas: Stephanie said she could use girls shirts – sizes 6-10, tennis shoes sizes 13 (child) to 5 (adult), and saltines (for those with upset stomachs). She always appreciates the small water bottles, Goldfish, chips, sweatpants and leggings sizes 6-8, and underwear sizes 6-8. You know the drill: put your items in our cute little school bus in the Narthex. You are so appreciated! Thank you, Mingus View!!
