Happy Hollow’s lead custodian, Willie Hernandez, and his family lost their home and all of their possessions last week in a fire. Principal Jim Lee set up a donation website for their benefit (online here). The Happy Hollow PTO is working on Volunteer Spot for donations of items they will need when they find a new home.
They need pretty much everything: Cellphones, computer, furniture, clothing, kitchen stuff, bedding, etc. Everything to set up a new home and get their two teenage daughters ready for school in less than 2 weeks! People can leave donations in the clear plastic bin set up in the lobby of Happy Hollow or call Willie at 508-358-2120 x122 to make arrangements.
For details on the fire, see this article from last Wednesday’s Boston Globe.
