This year, Troy Women's Association found some small ways to enhance students' experiences at local schools.
For Leonard Elementary, they purchased a standard reading and writing center.

Smith Middle teachers asked for support in purchasing material and supplies for apple items and a science project.

Wass Elementary needed CD players and books.

Schroeder elementary asked for Nooks for reading. With the Nooks, they can borrow and download books from our library.

We hope that the children will enjoy these purchases for years to come.

LIGHTHOUSE PROJECT

Carole P. writes: Each year Troy Women’s Association contacts Lighthouse of Pontiac requesting how we might assist in meeting some of their immediate needs.  Lighthouse responded that both diapers and baby wipes are in high demand, particularly with housing young families in their PATH program.  Six cases of diapers in various sizes and six cases of baby wipes were delivered to Lighthouse in April, 2013.  

Clean and dry babies make happy babies. 

Grant Committee Meeting

The Grant Committee met at Caribou on Crooks on April 4, 2013. Much progress was made and goals were set.  We are applying to Kroger to help with food items for one of our events and to Kohl's to support some of our committees that would benefit from additional support.

This is a committee that started some years back and one of our members, Sue, gather much of the information we needed, so hopefully, this will become a regular work of our members in this committee.
