The Jackson State University National Alumni Association Inc.-Hattiesburg Chapter helped spread Christmas cheer by donating school supplies to Tekeica Terrell’s third-grade class at Grace Christian Elementary School in Hattiesburg.

Donated items – transported in a big, blue and white box – included loose-leaf paper, three- and four-ring spiral notebooks, journal writing tablets, good behavior stickers, glue sticks, pencils, pencil pouches, pencil sharpeners and other items.

Students were excited to receive the unexpected gifts, which will help them achieve educational success.

The chapter will honor the class’s Honor Roll students yearly.

In addition to giving scholarships and book awards, this is another project the Hattiesburg Alumni Chapter does to bring awareness to the university, support public school systems and make a difference in the lives of children, according to President Dorothy Lucas. Read Full article at JSU
