Lifeline Shoebox

Lifeline Shoebox was started by Wanda S. Reid in 2008 in an effort to provide a solution to the local nursing homes and assisted living facilities​ in Forsyth County, NC. For over 40 years the residents have received only $30 per month which is not enough for most people to be able to purchase their own personal needs items. So to help Lifeline Shoebox was created to provide a gift of 15 items to help make the residents' lives easier.

We are collecting personal care items here at Jefferson through the end of November. Just drop off your donations at the front office.

Scholastic Book Fair

The Scholastic Book Fair will be at TJMS December 9th-13th.  We are looking for volunteers to help with the fair during hours of operation.  PLEASE support of Media Center by volunteering at our Artic Adventure Winter Book Fair - there is SNOW much to read!

The Patriot Pride store is in need of your donations. 
Please send in sodas, store-size candies and chocolate bars, 
and any type of school supplies. 
The Patriot Pride store is open to all grade levels at Jefferson once a month, 
so donations are needed all year long.

Many thanks to all who have donated to this cause this year!
