Satanta National Honor Society is hosting a donation drive for the Western Kansas Child Advocacy Center (WKCAC) during the month of October. Our focus is collecting items that the center uses to aid the children in their care. Items on this list can be found here. These items can be dropped off at Satanta Grade School, Satanta High School, or the Dudley Township Public Library.
To incentivize donations of these items, student donors (grades K-12) will be given a raffle ticket for a $50 gift card for each item donated. The drawing will be held at the conclusion of the donation drive, which is slated for October 31.
Let’s work together to support the WKCAC, which provides comprehensive services to child victims of abuse and their families in rural Western Kansas. The center offers a safe and supportive environment for children who have experienced physical abuse, neglect, or other forms of trauma. We can help heal that trauma with even the smallest of gifts.
