Organization in need of school supplies - KVIA.com El Paso, Las Cruces - Weather, News, Sports -: "EL PASO, TX --
Preparing children to learn in a classroom setting starts at home.
That is the belief of organizers behind Americorps' HIPPY program. HIPPY stands for Home Instruction for Parents of Preschool Youngsters.
In order to further that belief, organizers conduct home visits with hundreds of families participating in the program. They take with them school supplies to give to the 3 and 4 year old children, who will hopefully use them to help prepare them for preschool and kindergarten.
But in order to hand out the glue sticks, crayons, and scissors, organizers need to have them on hand. Unfortunately, the supplies are running low."
