4th June Brought Improvement to Kingsley Elementary School

,
The Bounty group, which is one that is known to support the maintenance and improvement of learning environments in public schools, definitely has enough reasons to be worried about this matter.

In fact, there have already been various studies and researches that have shown that cleanliness of the location and the environment as a whole has affected the achievements and the creativity of students studying at that establishment.
However, the truth of the situation is that there are still several many schools in the country that has at least one building that is not maintained and is not in a good condition. It is to change this situation that the Bounty group has initialized the “Make a clean difference” program.

Through this program the group plans on helping improve the learning environment of at least thirty schools in the country, spread over ten cities in America.
In fact they have already been successful in achieving this, for instance, during the National Volunteer week this year, on June 4th the group along with many local volunteers stopped over at the Kingsley Elementary School in Los Angeles where they helped improve the learning environment of the school to a great extent.

They even repainted classrooms and planted new flowers; all this in an effort to make the environment of learning a lot better for students, to help them in better learning and also to help their creativity blossom.

The group had the help of several local volunteers from Los Angeles during this National Volunteer Week where they visited the school and two others on a different day in the city as well. Most of these local volunteers were from the Rush Philanthropic Arts foundation as well as the HandsOn Network. However, not only were these volunteers ordinary concerned citizens, but there were celebrities present there as well. The Hollywood couple, Jennie Barth and Peter Facinelli were also helping out with Bounty and the other local volunteers in improving the school.

The whole affair was hugely inspiring, following the tracks of what president Obama very recently asked Americans to help out with, to volunteer in improving the society.
