Good afternoon. For many that may not know, one of our busses crashed yesterday with roughly 30 children on board.
Thankfully the injuries were something they could heal from. Myself and my spouse were first on scene due to our own child being on the bus.
We want to say that we are thankful that all the children and bus driver made it out and we hope for a speedy recovery.
We are asking, due to several items that may have been damaged, for CLEAR water bottles, and little keychains that can attach to the backpacks. (We are good on backpacks). Not just for the wreck but also because the school could use waterbottles for their students.
Grades range from kindergarten to 5th grade. So themed ones such as unicorns, super heros, would be welcomed.
Why are we asking for such a thing? Several of the children's waterbottles may have been damaged and although it is a small thing, it may be a reminder of something that was traumatic. If we can assist in making them feel better by giving them another one, we will. Same with the keychains, several were crushed or damaged in the impact.
If you have one to donate, you can reach out to us here or if you feel more comfortable donating to the school, you can. The school is Lebanon Junction Elementary School.
Parents of children affected in the crash, if you need anything, please do not hesitate to reach out to us. We will assist in any way we can.
We are wishing for a speedy recovery for all those involved and so thankful that it wasn't worse.
