 "I just wanted to let you know that Zack came home and could not stop talking about the field trip in the gym with the organ donor. He was so excited to tell me all the things that he learned. I am so glad that the school was able to do this demonstration for such a great cause. I had a family member who donated some her organs when she passed. Hearing the stories was great to see how she was able to help. Glad that the students were able to experience that. Thank you." MCIS Parent |
