Plan to attend the Carver Elementary School “Make a Difference Day” yard sale and silent auction at the school on Saturday, October 28, from 8 to 11:30 a.m.
The event is sponsored by the school’s PTO and Partnering, Educating, Empowering, Role modeling and Service (PEERS) student organization.
School staff, parents, students, business leaders and local citizens will be participating in the event. Everyone in our community is urged to volunteer at the event, donate items for the yard sale and silent auction and attend the event to purchase items for the fundraiser.
The goal of the day’s event is to fill Peer Cheer Pouches, involving one-gallon-size storage bags packed with new items such as toiletries, hand sanitizer, washcloths, non-perishable foods or snack items, school supplies, games, toys, stuffed animals, clothing and more. The Peer Cheer Pouches will be given to needy families in the Carver school area, a local shelter, orphanages, hospital and other charitable organizations. Carver’s goal is to fill 600 Peer Cheer Pouches.
Please get involved in this very worthy “Make a Difference Day” event!
For more information you may contact Teresa Hicks, counselor and PEERS adviser, and Henri Parham of the Carver PTO, at the school at 252-438-6955.
