School Sorting Thank You
Here at greenLockers we are very grateful for the schools we partner with. It is an empowering experience to see the student organizations in each school take hold of the greenLockers program and make it their own. I had the opportunity to work in a few schools with the students to help collect and sort the supplies. Many young people came out to help and truly demonstrated great leadership and maturity. We decided to designate certain areas for different school items and let the students take their own greenLockers tub and sort the items. A few students stepped up and took leadership deciding where to put which items and, we allowed them to make the decision on the quality of the item donated. I asked a few students how they liked helping and the most common response was how they knew for certain they were making a difference in the local community and that was pretty cool to them. A few students had helped out in previous years and came out again showing sincerity in their time and how important the project was to them. Thanks again to all the students, adult volunteers, and schools that helped out in this year’s greenLockers drive. You are making a difference in the lives of countless children and are helping to secure a brighter future.
