Central and Southeastern Schools pack that bus, and that's just what they did for the town of Joplin.

With only 2 days to bring items in before school let out, Central's donations just poured in.  From Pre-K through high school and even throughout the entire community, they all pitched in.

Southeastern's freshman donated their after prom money and bought items for the Joplin relief.

Once the kids emptied the bus, they helped KHQA organize the DOT Foods trailer and labeled and packed up boxes.  A special thank you to them for donating their time to do that.

Griggsville Perry students also donated lots of items for Joplin.

More then 5 truck loads of items were stuffed full for donation.

A big thank you to all the students and schools who have donated.  What a great example they are setting for others.
