September Service Project raising money
to send dog for training to help the blind
Jasper Elementary students collecting money
From September 12 through September
22, the students of Jasper Elementary School
will be collecting money to send a Leader
Dog for the Blind to school.
These specially-trained dogs need to learn
many things before they can help lead a blind
person. It costs $30,000 to train one leader
dog and 100 percent of the Kids N’Coins
proceeds will be used for training purposes.
JES students know how important learn
ing is, so we want to help. For more info:
