Redlands parents share Haiti earthquake experience

Two Kimberly Elementary School parents will share their recent experiences in Haiti during the earthquake on Tuesday, Feb. 2 from 6:30-7:30 p.m. at Kimberly Elementary's Multipurpose room. Carlo Alce and James Goss will discuss the devastation and what can be done to help.

Several families at the school have been directly involved with people in Haiti, and so the school is also joining in the efforts to provide relief for the earthquake victims. Donations for the following are being accepted:

  • New or gently used twin bed sheets for hospitals
  • Twin size inflatable mattresses for hospital use
  • Black pens and writing pads for doctors and nurses
  • Headlamps
  • Small one-to-four personal tents, easy to assemble
  • Packages of emergency blankets (foil, mylar or other)
  • Money in the form of a check made payable to Loma Linda University-Haiti Relief

There are drop-off points around the perimeter of the Kimberly campus every day this week, open Monday-Friday from 7:15-7:45 a.m. and again in the afternoon from 1:40-2:10 p.m.

The school is located at 301 West South Ave. in Redlands.
