ABSE Florence class needs donations of children’s toys, games and books

FLORENCE, Ore. — The Adult Basic and Secondary Education classroom at Lane Community College Florence Center needs donations of games, craft materials, books and puzzles appropriate for children ages 3-12. The ABSE department offers Tuesday and Thursday evening classes at the Florence Center to help adults who are beginning English language learners develop reading, writing, speaking and listening skills. The 5-hour per week class also offers child care on site at no cost while the parents are in class. Child care provider costs are paid through a contract with Siuslaw School District to help the district’s parents better support their children’s education and English skills.

ABSE will accept donations at the main desk at Florence Center. Include your name and e-mail address if you would like acknowledgement of your donation. Contact Leonora Kent at kentl@lanecc.edu in Florence or call ABSE Florence at (541) 463-4835 if you have questions.
