a. Lysol and Frontline Impact Project Donation of Lysol Wipes to DeKalb County School District
Summary: Presented by: Mr. Erick Hofstetter, Chief Operating Officer, Division of Operations
Request: In accordance with Board Policy DFK, Gifts and Bequests, it is requested that the Board of Education accept a donation of Lysol wipes totaling $134,100.00 from Lysol and Frontline Impact to the DeKalb County School District.
Why: This school year, Lysol and Frontline Impact Project teamed up with the “Here for Healthy Schools” campaign, to donate Lysol disinfectant wipes to teachers across America aimed at reducing the spread of germs and keeping kids in school.
Details: Ms. Rebecca Kafka, teacher at Stone Mountain Elementary School, initially nominated her school to receive a donation of Lysol Wipes. As a result, Lysol and the Frontline Impact Project will be donating wipes to all schools in the district. Lysol will deliver one full truckload with 40 pallets of wipes to the school district upon Board of Education acceptance of the donation. The wipes will be distributed to schools/classrooms throughout the district. These wipes will help to reduce the spread of germs and keep our students healthy so that they can be in school.
Financial impact: The funds are donated, so there will be no impact to the general budget.
