National Honor Society Homeless Youth Drive: 

National Honor Society is sponsoring a Homeless Youth Needs Drive starting this Wednesday (March 27th) and running through next Wednesday (April 3rd).  We are trying to raise awareness around youth facing homelessness within our own communities in Southeastern, MN.  On any given night, 60-100 youth experience homelessness in the Rochester and Southeastern, MN area.  Lutheran Social Services (LSS) serves homeless youth through their LINK program.  They assist with helping youth find transitional housing and provide them with basic personal needs.  Each 5th-12th grade student should have received a "Wishlist" that lists personal care items LINK is in need of (see below).  Please consider donating if possible!   Thank you!
