Hurricane Disaster...Over But Not Forgotten

The TV cameras are gone. Some of the area schools hit hardest by the hurricanes are finally reopening. The attention of the nation has moved on. But the needs of students, schools, and especially our teaching colleagues, continue.

KNEA President Christy Levings is personally asking every KNEA local association to make a minimum contribution of at least $1.00 per member to the NEA Hurricane Relief efforts.

"Every contribution - large or small - is needed and will make a difference. I am hopeful that all Kansas locals will work to reach this minimum goal," she said. "Every dollar contributed goes directly to help members of our education family. The National Education Association is paying for all the administrative costs of the program."

Levings urged our local affiliate to meet the goal of $1.00 per member to the NEA Hurricane Relief Fund. Make contributions by clicking here or calling the Helpline at 1-866-247-2239. Click here to see the NEA Disaster Relief Fund Honor Roll.

"Thank you for your generosity and your continued support," Levings said.
