Dawn DeShazo has made children her mission. The COVID-19 pandemic has created a tremendous need for the most vulnerable families in our community. While Dawn has been battling cancer she has long been a servant to our community and has recently developed a program to deliver food to these families while educating them on the value of staying home.

These are working Springdale families with children in our district who simply needing a helping hand from their neighbors during this time of uncertainty. Dawn has been aided by many teachers and assistants within the Springdale School District in delivering this life sustaining gift to these grateful families.

They are raising money, accepting gift cards or even food donations that they bundle together into care packages to deliver to these homes. The goal is not only to care for these families, but to educate them on the value of staying home when an individual living in the home is sick so that we may prevent the spread of the virus. These people delivering are taking appropriate precautions but also delivering educational materials to the families about safe practices as well as signage they can use to let someone approaching the home know they need to take precautions. If you would like to help feed these children and their families please reach out to Dawn.
