A local mom and childcare provider, Florence Benjamin, who is also from Haiti, is organizing a clothes and first-aid items shipment for next Wednesday, courtesy of American Airlines. On the Haiti side, the shipment will be met by the wife of the Minister of Communications and Public Works. She has set up a mini hospital in the yard of her collapsed house. She is requesting over-the counter first aid supplies and medicines, clean lightweight clothing (especially for children). She has a nonprofit organization.
Please bring your donations to 6112 Lone Oak Drive, Bethesda. Ms. Benjamin (her son Richard is a WJ senior) lives here, and will take your donations and get them ready for shipment. They are both Haitian-Americans, and they are like-family to many NB families. You can contact Ms. Benjamin directly at (301) 793-9733 with questions and expressions of your support. We thank the State Department employee who offered assistance with this people-to-people miracle. And we thank American Airlines, who said they would take the donations to Haiti. The field hospital/refugee camp at Dominique’s (she is the recipient) is looking forward to receiving supplies and clothing. A couple of notes: Yes, shoes (closed toes) like sneakers are fine. Yes, adult clothes are fine. Remember, it is always summer weather down there. Yes, if you have a tent and/or sleeping bags, you can donate them. Thank you for your generosity. |

Collection of can tops for school fund raising is a health hazard for children. My daughter goes around collecting can tops from neighbors and our recycle bin and this is going out of control to impress school. Any thoughts to stop this to prevent sharp metal exposure and health hazards like Tetanus.

Calling all students, parents, alum, cluster families and all members of the Walter Johnson community...
There is no better way to start your Thanksgiving morning than with a 10K run or a 2 mile run. Join me and others for the annual Turkey Chase in Bethesda on Thanksgiving morning. Please register and make sure that you note Walter Johnson as your school affiliation. For the past two years, WJ has won the "Principal's Prize" ($1000) because we have had the highest number of affiliated participants. Currently, we are leading, but the lead over Whitman HS is very small and so we need everyone's help. As in past years, WJ will use this money to support our Access2College program through which we mentor first-generation college applicants. In advance, I thank you for your support of our incredible WJ community. www.turkeychase.com Christopher Garran, Ph.D. Principal Walter Johnson High School |
