A Bake Sale Makes Back To School A Little More Enjoyable
Danielle Scott and Ashley Sickles
Oskaloosa, Iowa – Just outside the Bridal Dreams store in downtown Oskaloosa Thursday evening, what appears to be your typical bake sale was taking place.
There were rice crispy bars, cupcakes, cookies, and all the varieties generally found at such a sale.
The sale is anything but typical, as it’s grown over the years, but its mission has remained the same, helping kids get the school supplies they need to start the academic year off right.
Danielle Scott and Ashley Sickles provide daycare, and they became aware of the school supply effort spearheaded by the Mahaska County United Way called Operation Backpack.
