The CHS Future Business Leaders of America are sponsoring several different charity drives that they want you to be a part of. These drives will help the needs of many different people across the world. The drives are: Collecting prescription eyeglasses, cell phones, children’s books and toiletry items.

The eyeglasses collection is in conjunction with the Menlo Lions Club. The club will be refurbishing the glasses and sending them to someone with a need for new spectacles. Any cell phones and accessories that are collected are sent to a central location and either refurbished and sold or broken down into parts. Profits from this collection are used to distribute international calling cards for soldiers. Children’s books that are collected will be sent to various medical facilities where children wait. Also, any toiletry items and household products will be sent to the Crisis Center for Domestic Abuse.

Please help these students out and drop off any donations by the CHS front office Tuesday – Friday from 8am until 4pm.

HOSA students will be participating in the Alzheimer’s Memory Walk at Berry College on Saturday, September 18. They have placed donation jars in the front office at CHS and in the vocational office to help them meet their $500 goal. All of the money will be donated to the Alzheimer’s Foundation to be used for research.  Alzheimer’s Disease is one of the most devastating diseases I have ever seen. The CHS HOSA students thank you in advance for your support.
