3 Rivers board accepts $5,500 in gifts for district programs

The 3 Rivers Local School District Board of Education on July 22 accepted two donations totaling $5,500 to district accounts and programs. Board Vice President Ryan McDonald recommended the acceptance, saying, “I would like to recommend the acceptance of the following donations and grants to the 3 Rivers Local School District. $500, from the Cleves 3 Rivers Kiwanis Club to Jackie Cares, and $5,000 from the friends and family of doctor Mark Holt to the 0 7 0 account.” A motion to accept the donations was moved and seconded; recorded roll-call affirmatives in the transcript included Ryan McDonald, Garen Evans, Missus Miller and Missus Hughes. The transcript does not provide further detail about the 070 account or the specific use of the $5,000 beyond the donor description; the $500 donation is designated to a program or fund identified in the packet as "Jackie Cares." No conditions or restrictions on the gifts were recorded during the meeting.
