September Service Project
 
McKinney ISD is looking for support for their CLIMB afterschool program! We'll collect school supplies, books, and hygiene supplies (toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap, etc.) through the end of September. 
Please consider volunteering as well! These wonderful young McKinney residents need your support and encouragement as they navigate through elementary school. Your mentorship could be the boost they need!
