BES PreK4 Teacher to Donate Photography Talents to Walk of Hope Event on Sept. 30th

Our amazing PreK4 teacher, Mrs. Kelley Palmer, will be donating her photography talents to take pictures of the Walk of Hope on Saturday, September 30th. The Walk of Hope is a community event that supports those with infertility and benefits RESOLVE: The National Infertility Association.

Infertility affects 1 in 8 couples and 7.3 million women and men. The Walk of Hope event represents the infertility journey—a series of small steps, each one filled with hope and a reminder that no one with infertility should walk alone.

If you are interested in donating to this organization or joining their team, follow this link.
