Caring is Sharing
We all have times in our lives that we could use some extra cheer and well-wishes. What can you do to help someone else this year and bring a smile to their face? Join FCCLA in showing that you care for those in our Plainview community. They are working with Plainview’s Toys for Tots Program to gather additional needed items to be given to Toys for Tots Families, residents of Plainview Manor and Assisted Living, and others in the community who may not have family around at Christmas.
Please be generous this holiday season and contribute Health and Beauty items to be given to ourPlainview families. These additional needed items are for a variety of ages.Suggested Items include: deodorant, body wash/soap, lotion, razors, shaving cream, Q-tips, shampoo, conditioner, hairspray, hair brush, combs, face wash, dental floss, toothbrush, toothpaste, lip balm, baby wipes, diapers, baby wash/lotion, paper towels, cleaning supplies, detergent, fabric softeners, bleach, hats, mittens/gloves, games, and puzzles.
Residents at Plainview Manor and Assisted Living along with others in the community who do not have family close by would also enjoy gifts. Suggested items have been blankets/throws and socks. Cash donations are also accepted. A collection box is located in the Family and Consumer Sciences classroom at the high school.
Students at Plainview have been challenged to contribute items also. At the High School, the highest percentage winning class participants will receive a free breakfast or lunch provided by FCCLA. While the highest percentage winning class at the elementary will receive a special Treat Day provided by FCCLA . Additionally, at the Dec. 2nd basketball game, anyone wishing to contribute items or make a cash donation will receive two free Otis freshly baked cookies. All cookie proceeds that night will go towards the Caring is Sharing Program.
