Linden Heritage Foundation presented Linden-Kildare Superintendent Keri Winters and Assistant Superintendent Keith Owen with a check for $6000 for “Let LK Shine’.

Winters says if the donation, “we are looking ahead to reopening our schools and are pleased to partner with the Linden Heritage Foundation in “Let LK Shine”.
