Touchstone Preschools Donate More Than 175 Items to Nonprofit

Students collected new socks, undergarments and hygiene items for Northwest Children's Outreach

Students at Touchstone Preschools in Beaverton, Hillsboro and Tigard recently donated more than 175 items to Northwest Children’s Outreach. Throughout the summer, students held a joint donation drive and collected new socks, undergarments, diapers and more. At the close of the drive, students hosted a crazy sock day in celebration of their donations. Through this initiative, students learned the importance of helping local children and families in need.

Northwest Children's Outreach is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping families in the Portland area and surrounding communities. The organization helps fulfill the needs of these families, providing clothing, infant care products, diapers, formula and many of the other necessities parents need for their children.
