It Starts In The Heart

The Joseph Sams School students created a video with a theme of connection and hope. The video features a message from our BOD President, Wayne Hillis, an instrumental song, individual students’ smiles, dances, and messages from their hearts.

We appreciate Ms. Caroline and the JSS staff for leading the students, showcasing their many strengths and abilities, all while allowing them to shine!

Giving Tuesday

November 28, 2023

 

GivingTuesday was created in 2012 as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good. We are thankful for the Good you do for the students at Joseph Sams School ALL YEAR. If you want to be a part of Giving Tuesday, please consider a second mile gift to the Joseph Sams School. It costs $250 to send a student to Camp each year. Can you cover the cost for one student, two students? Any amount you can give is appreciated. How many kids can we get to Camp this GivingTuesday?
