On behalf of her class, Rena shared this: \u201cWe are all mothers in this class and by the grace of God we are able to help mothers in need.\u201d Time and again, the Ross Lansing staff, faculty, and students have shown their considerable generosity toward others, and this drive was no different. Items donated included bottles of shampoo and conditioner, deodorant, spa-like soaps, toothpaste and toothbrushes, paper towels, and bright, colorful spring-inspired dish towels and placemats.
