JISD Parent Starts Bernice's Room
Judson ISD would like to share with you a lovely story about how members of our JISD Family started a non-profit called Bernice's Room.
Traci Allen, a parent at Salinas ES, and her sister, Deborah Murphy, a counselor at Salinas ES, started the non-profit in honor of their mom, who has been on hospice care after a stroke. Bernice's Room gives out food, clothes, blankets, hygiene items and provides the resources to assist people with linkage to medical care, especially HIV.
Please take a moment to read and watch the full KENS5 story broadcasted on Christmas Eve.
Everything my mom did, the cooking, the sharing, the listening, finding resources for people, I mean, just helping in general. That's exactly what her nonprofit is about."
