Veterans Memorial Families,
 
A fire has completely destroyed the home of a family at our neighboring school, Jaindl Elementary (link to WFMZ article). To my knowledge, no one was physically hurt or injured, thankfully, but the loss is immense. Veterans Memorial will be taking up a collection to help support the family. The school counselor at Jaindl Elementary shared that the family is requesting gift cards to purchase items from Walmart and/or Target. If you are interested in making a donation, please bring it into the main office of the school. If donating cash, all money collected will be used to purchase a gift card(s).
 
Please call Todd Beidleman, School Counselor, if you have any questions.
610.351.5910
 
Thank you for your support.

Please help Veterans Memorial collect Ramen for the Parkland Food Drive.
