Micro Grant Provided by Western Coffee Company - WMS Counseling

Posted Date: 11/22/2021

Recently, Platte County School District #1 had the honor of working with Becky Hilty and Western Coffee Co. to raise money for Platte County teachers and educational resources. The drive-up and delivery coffee company served over 500 drinks in 12 hours during the fundraiser! They went through 30 gallons of milk and raised over $6000. This money has been used to create a microgrant. Teachers have the option to apply for unique and untraditional items for their students and classrooms. See the article below for a glimpse at how this money is benefitting our #oneplatte1 family.

Dear MicroGrant donors,

Thank you so much for your generous donation to my counseling office. Your weighted items have been used a lot already by students in need of support. I cannot give pictures of counseling students, but here is a picture of Mrs. Becker, who also uses the weighted items when feeling the effects of a long day.

Thank you so much for supporting our students!
