How Can You Help In Other Ways?

Immediate Needs:

We need everyone to either sign up for the RHS Orchestra Booster Club or donate what they can in order to meet our goal for the year. Every penny counts! Due to funds already collected, we were able to purchase extra goodies for the reception.

Ms. White is in desperate need of TISSUES and HAND SANITIZER. Thank you!
