Kristine Neff, School Nurse Corps (Kalama)
Kristine Neff is a shining example of how a great school nurse is often so much more than just a nurse, but functions as a connector between students, school and community. When the Kelso/Longview Elks donated over $500 to the Kalama School District to purchase shoes for students at Payless before it went out of business, Kristine was tasked with the job. She was able to get 25 pairs of shoes for kids in need. “It was one of those moments where I get to do a little good to make a child happy and smile,” she says.
Thank you to the Kelso/Longview Elks for the shoes and to Kristine for coordinating their purchase and distribution!
Kristine is amazing and does great outreach for the students in her district!
