TTT CONTRIBUTES TO PRESCHOOL FUND

The Citizens Scholarship Foundation of BGM (a Dollars for Scholars Chapter) received a check from the TTT for $250.00 designated for the preschool fund.

TTT felt that with several members who have small children, and teachers within the organization, that a donation to the preschool fund would be a benefit for the community. They also feel that preschool is really important for the development of the children and to give the children the socialization skills needed to attend school. Our preschool program is a wonderful drawing point to have within our school system. By having scholarships available to help save the cost of each child attending and to make preschool affordable to every child who attends is TTT’s purpose of giving their donation.

The Foundation would like to express their gratitude to all the members of TTT for their continued support over the years to the Foundation. Without the support of the community and each individual the Foundation would not be where it is today.

The Foundation is a community project everyone can be proud of. Each year we hope everyone will continue their support and a few new contributors will help out as well.

Anyone wishing to make a contribution to the Foundation please contact Becky Edelen, CSF of BGM Board of Trustee for the TTT, or any other board member. You can also write to Box 469, Brooklyn, IA 52211.
