CARE NIGHT - Cascade Elementary School

The second CARE NIGHT of 2009 was on Oct. 22, 2009 at Cascade View Elementary in Tukwila (Washington). Hundreds of students with their families came to receive clothing and visit the service fair.
This is the second of three CARE NIGHT events KWB has contributed to this year. The next CARE NIGHT will be on Monday, Oct. 26, 2009 at Thorndyke Elementary School in Tukwila.
CARE stands for Clothing Are Really Expensive, started seven years ago by a small team of teachers and parents in the Tukwila School District. Recently, the Tukwila School District was named as the most 'ethnically diverse' school district in the U.S. (read more http://www.seattlemet.com/issues/archives/articles/refugees-0709/4/).
