MoonFish Villas
Project #1
We are proud to support our local school at River Sallee, where 160 enthusiastic and charming children from ages 5 through 16 in our neighborhood are supported by loving and forward-thinking teachers and staff. The Principal, Mrs. Jean James Ross, is always so welcoming to our guests when we drop off donations, and strives to provide strong educational scaffolding for the growth of her charges.

Initiatives Supported
Listed on this page are the specific needs requested by the community project(s) so you can choose exactly what to pack for a purpose and express your gratitude to the local community with the supplies you take them.
Candy and balloons are not on the needs list as they are harmful for the children and the environment for the following reasons:
• Few of the children benefiting from these projects have access to toothpaste, toothbrushes, or a dentist. The candy promotes cavities.
• The balloons once they become deflated are a choking hazard for local wildlife.
Instead of taking candy or balloons, use that space for additional requested supplies, as they are priceless.
