In the January Kindle’s Korner, Dr. Kindle wrote about our Angel Fund. We have some families in our school district who have had some challenges come up for them making it difficult to pay their child’s meal account. The Angel Fund is used to help families alleviate any outstanding debt, by helping them through some unexpected happenings in their family.
We had a gracious donor pledge of $2500 in the hopes we can raise $5000. If you are looking for a way to help families in our community, please consider donating to the YSD Child Nutrition Angel Fund. We are confident we can surpass the $5000 challenge. All donations will remain in the Angel Fund for future needs.
If you have any questions regarding the Angel Fund, you are welcome to contact our Director of Child Nutrition, Laura Horacek at 605-665-8379 or by email at laura.horacek@k12.sd.usphone or Dr. Kindle at 605-665-3998 or email wayne.kindle@k12.sd.us.
