My name is Sharon DeSeure, I am a resident of Cleveland, Mo and I enjoy doing different things
for my community. You may have noticed the tree located at the Cleveland City Hall. This tree is
decorated monthly to fit themes and holidays. Sometimes, there are little gifts hidden in the
tree for children of all ages to enjoy. I like to call this, "The Giving Tree".
For the months of July and August, I am adding tags to the tree to encourage others to
participate in a school supply drive for the Cass Midway school district. Our goal is to provide 2
fully stocked book bags to each classroom from K-6 grade. These bags can be used in any way
that each classroom sees fit. They can be extra supplies for the classroom or even a welcome
bag for a new student. I am excited to be able to help out our community in any way that is
needed. Being able to help a teacher, classroom or new student is a welcome gift in any school.
Would you please join me bring this gift to Cass Midway teachers and students? It is a small
thing that can lead to even greater moments.
Please host a Giving Tree Drop Box at your business from July 1st until August 25. I will be
happy to replace any drop boxes, at any time, in order to keep your business neat and clutterfree.
If you need the Giving Tree Box picked up, at any time, please call, and I will be happy to do
this for you.
You can also help out by sponsoring school supplies as a business and get a shout-out and thank
you for your outstanding help in providing school supplies and bookbags to each classroom at
Cass Midway.
Thank you, in advance for helping us reach our goal. I appreciate all that you do for our
community and our school district. Please contact City Hall for Sharon's contact information
