[quote=Anonymous]OP here, this is great to hear. And to the PP whose kids prefer older shoes- I completely agree and was not trying to make assumptions about any single child. My child is the same way! It just is eye opening that there’s a good chance that my child could be best friends with a kid who doesn’t have a warm coat or enough to eat during long weekends, which made me want to help be involved in these types of efforts. Another example was at a school we toured they said they have dental services on site for children and encourage everyone to use them. I think that is wonderful. I agree that identifying needy students and distributing items should be handled by social workers or other trained professionals at the school, but strongly think that parents with who have the means to do so should pitch in and help contribute to ensuring that the children in the community have what they need.[/quote]
