This 13-year teaching veteran has nearly 100 boxes of school supplies at her home thanks to her sorority sisters' response to not having all the resources she needed for her students.
When Michelle Lindsey, a high school teacher in North Carolina, goes back to school later this month, she is going to need a caravan of trucks to deliver school supplies to her classroom.
"As soon as I hit send I had to turn my phone on silent because of the notifications coming in," she said."It was all sisters asking, 'What can I do?'" She joined Delta Sigma Theta, a nonprofit organization of college-educated women focused on service, last year hoping to find a sisterhood. One of the Delta sisters who stepped up to help was Kimberly Warren Green, a registered nurse in Tacoma, Washington.
She also plans to hold"supply celebrations" in her classes so the students can celebrate the generosity of others. Lindsey said she sees her students work harder when they know that she or a complete stranger went the extra mile to help them.
