Those are really great stories to hear. I'll have to go to my local Lowes this weekend and see if they've made any grants to schools in my area. Thanks! Those are really great stories to hear.

Our school, Northside Elementary in Panama City, FL, received a $32,000.00 grant from their Toolbox for Education program during the 2007-2008 school year. We were able to replace both of the playgrounds at our school! We love Lowe's at Northside! I absolutely agree with you about Lowe’s.
