For those who don’t know, Brown Bag Buddies was formed about 15 years ago when Dayton School Nurse, Karen Allen realized that some children in the school district
needed help.
According to Allen, about 15 years ago the family of a student in Dayton was struggling and did not have the resources for items most families would consider common. Allen
recognizing the need and went all over the county seeking assistance for this family. This need made it obvious to Allen that a group was needed to assist students and families
in crisis and Brown Bag Buddies was formed. Usually Brown Bag Buddies attempts to find individuals in the community who are willing to sponsor a child throughout the school
year, but now do accept donations. In years past Brown Bag Buddies assisted children in the Dayton Independent School District but the program is being expanded to include
students from other area school districts.
The San Jacinto High Rollers, founded in 1957, became aware of the program and made the decision to help and today made a donation to the organization. The check from the San
Jacinto High Rollers was presented to Karen Allen at the Kimmie Brown Elementary School in Dayton. In addition to Brown Bag Buddies, the San Jacinto High Rollers works to assist
the Special Olympics and a children’s home in Kerrville, TX.
Nurse Allen said the funds donated today would be shared with other area school districts.
