Fueling our Front Line Heroes


School Counseling student making a difference!

One of your stellar fellow students, Mara Pollard, in collaboration with the ECC and Dr. Mason, has begun an initiative to help combat the COVID-19 crisis in our community.  Part of this initiative is a GoFundMe page "Fueling our Frontline Heroes." The money raised will be to create snack/self-care packs for healthcare workers at local hospitals. The plan is to buy cellophane type bags, Costco snacks, and include a self-care activity. 

This is an incredible example of how COUNSELORS CAN CHANGE THE WORLD!

Below is the link to the GoFundMe page. Please feel free to share with family and friends!
