The “GiveBack” Challenge

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY)- H.L. Suverkrup issues a challenge to other schools to #GiveBack during this pandemic.

Last week H.L. Suverkrup donated their supplies of hand sanitizers and cleaning wipes to the hospital.

Now Pueblo Elementary School is taking up the challenge and collecting supplies to donate to local assisted living facilities. Pueblo Elementary is also working on having masks made for the residents.

Salida de Sol Elementary School will also collect hand sanitizers and cleaning supplies to donate to Hospice of Yuma on Wednesday and encourage others who would like to contribute to do the same.

The school district said some of the supplies were donations from parents but many of them were purchased by teachers themselves throughout the school year. 

They said they are appreciative to all parents who provide supplies at the beginning of each school year, as well as to the teachers who’ve purchased materials for their classroom as needed.
