There is a tradition at Howard where the School Council allocates funds to be given to Howard families in need at this time of year. The Council purchases gift cards that families can use to purchase groceries, clothes, or gifts for their kids. These gift cards are very discreetly distributed by the Howard Principal to the families that need it most.

This process is so discreet that you probably didn’t know it happens every year!

If you would like to donate specifically to the Holiday Hamper initiative, please use School Cash Online and use the notes field to indicate your wishes.
