The Cabin John MS Counseling Department is partnering with the Salvation Army for a second year to support Montgomery County students in need this holiday season. The CJMS community will sponsor 50 students.
There is a giving tree in the main office by the VMS. Each tag (“angel”) represents a student and lists four gift categories:
- Need: essentials like diapers, shoes, coats, or grooming/hair kits
- Want: a toy from their age range (no bikes, scooters, tablets, drones, or other high-cost items)
- Wear: clothing such as pajamas, socks, underwear, shirts, or pants
- Read: a book
When you choose an angel, please plan to purchase all four items (Need, Want, Wear, and Read) for that student. For many of these children, these may be the only gifts they receive this holiday season.
How to participate:
- Take an angel from the tree (feel free to take more than one if you’re able).
- Scan the QR code on the tree to let us know which student you selected.
- Take a photo of the tag in case it gets misplaced.
- Drop off all unwrapped gifts at Cabin John Middle School by Wednesday, December 3.
For any questions, please contact Ms. Poole in the counseling office at Jennifer_A_Poole@mcpsmd.org or 240-406-1560.
