The Health Occupations Students of America (HOSA) and Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) members at the Clinton County Area Technology Center along with their instructors/Advisors Billie Frye, RN, Cindy Albertson, RN, and Holly Claborn collected items for Operation Christmas Child.

The donated items brought in by the students included: school supplies, personal hygiene items, candy, and toys. The students collected enough supplies to fill thirty-one Operation Christmas Child boxes.

The boxes are sent to needy children all over the world. A special thank you goes out to all the students and their families who took the time to purchase and prepare the items, donate money to help with the shipping cost, as well as Cave Springs Baptist Church which took the donated boxes to the appropriate location.
