Preschoolers learn how to help others with needs drive

Vancouver Heights — Each November for the last 25 years, Circle of Friends Preschool has held a needs drive to benefit local schools and charities. The hope and goal is to show the preschool students the value of helping others. Every item donated was shared in the classroom and a discussion followed explaining how their gifts will help someone in need. This year, the generosity of 160 students will impact three area agencies: Open House Ministries, Share and Young Lives.
