Ijams educator Lauren Bird and screech-owl (right) with Sam Houston students |
Recently, a school teacher from Sam Houston Elementary contacted me about collecting items for Ijams.
She asked me for suggestions of things we could use. I gave her a list and thanked her for the kind gesture. Ijams is a non-profit so there are always things we need.
She emailed me again last week and mentioned that they had done their donation drive and wanted to bring the collected items over to Ijams yesterday.
We racked up!
Sunflower seeds and paper towels and green cleaners… all kinds of good, useful stuff. To thank the young students for their generous effort, we did an animal program for them so they could see first-hand one of the animals they were helping with their donation.
THANK YOU!
