Serving at-risk youth in Spokane County by bringing resources into schools, advocating for children and working to address root causes of academic failure.
Swoop brought the holiday cheer! The school supplies drive during Thanks-for-Giving Tuesday was a great success due to the generosity of the EWU community, and our team delivered bags of new school supplies to Westwood Middle School. @CISspokane
To support the Tools2Schools drive with @CISspokane, our team collected a total of $794! This helped us purchase TONS of supplies for students that need them. We're lucky to have such a giving group and are so proud to have been a part of this drive.
