ALC School Supplies - THANK YOU!
Western Digital and United Way supplied filled backpacks for RPS's community schools. Thank you for helping our students have what they need to be successful in the classroom.
Can your group, employer, or organization host a drive for the RALC for one month?
Our Resource Room and Food Pantry run on drives that involve asking employees/members if they'd be willing to donate an item or two during that one month.
View the blue donation flier for our ongoing needs. Currently, all months October-May are open for a donation drive.
Please contact Sweta Patel if you're able to help organize a drive for us!
Note: Individuals can drop off needed items any time school is in session, 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Mayo Clinic's Pediatric & Adolescent Medicine hosted an August food/hygiene drive.
Altra Federal Credit Union hosted an August clothing drive.
Drop off your Hyvee receipts!
We have a box in the main office to collect Hy Vee receipts. Please continue to add your receipts to the box. Hy-Vee will give a portion of the total amount back to the RALC.
