Dollar General Surprises Sunset School

Principal Mary Jo Walker at Sunset Elementary School in Coalinga was informed that there would be some sort of donation on Friday the 13th from Dollar General at 2 PM. An assembly was planned, and children were geared up for a special afternoon. But no one was prepared for the donation given to the school by Dollar General: a check for $50,000.

This story is still developing. Plans, comments, and more will be forthcoming. Right now, it’s time to celebrate such generosity to Sunset School, its teachers, staff, and students.
