Holiday season of giving, volunteering and cheer

Lockport 91 Donna Gray, superintendent

Each year the Milne Grove Elementary School holds a "Spirit of Giving Garage Sale". Clean and gently used toys, clothing, household items, and furniture are donated and all community members are invited to "shop for free.”

Northbrook 28 Dr. Larry Hewitt, superintendent Students at Greenbriar School in Northbrook School District 28 collected donations following each grade’s Winter Sing concert in December for The Wheelchair Foundation. Under the direction of Music Teacher Jeremy Bartunek, the school has raised $2,500 each of the last three years to purchase

wheelchairs for people around the world who could not afford to buy them. This is just one of many fund-raisers done at each of the four district schools during the holiday season.
