(Henderson NV) - Polar Shades donated 600 Pop-Tarts and bottles of water for emergency preparedness kits, as well as over $500 in school supplies to Edna F. Hinman Elementary School in Henderson.

Polar Shades employees personally delivered boxes filled with pens, books, binders and paper along with the Pop-Tarts and bottled water to Hinman Elementary faculty and staff. The Pop-Tarts and bottled water donation help to achieve the objective set during emergency preparedness month in September to supply kits for children in case of a natural disaster.

I hope this donation will benefit the students and teachers in their learning and education, as well as preventative safety. Polar Shades will continue to help out local causes, including our community sponsorship with Hinman Elementary.”
