Board accepts $1,657 H‑E‑B donation through Communities In Schools
Summary
The Brenham ISD board voted unanimously to accept a $1,657 donation raised through H‑E‑B's Checkstand campaign; H‑E‑B and Communities In Schools representatives explained the local distribution plan for collected funds.
Representatives from Communities In Schools of Houston and H‑E‑B described the company’s Checkstand campaign and asked the board to accept one year’s local proceeds.
Lisa Descan't, CEO of Communities and Schools of Houston, said the partner organization works with districts across Greater Houston to provide campus-based supports and that local funds raised at Brenham H‑E‑B checkstands are returned to the community to purchase school supplies. Lacey Del Corzales of H‑E‑B Public Affairs explained that “the total amount raised will go back to the school district and be provided to you all to use in the form of purchasing school supplies of your choice.”
Board member Justin Colley moved to approve the $1,657 monetary donation; Bonnie Brinkmeyer seconded the motion and the board voted in favor.
The board did not attach conditions to the donation; the funds were presented as unrestricted school-supply support from the Checkstand campaign.
