MVA Says Teach Kids to Care

Metropolitan Veterinary Associates is seeking businesses, civic groups, and individuals to adopt classrooms in Montgomery, Chester and Delaware Counties. The Adopt-a-Classroom program teaches elementary-school children to treat animals with kindness and respect.

Each $30 tax-deductible contribution made to Metropolitan Veterinary associates for the Adopt-a-Classroom program provides a K-6 teacher and his or her class with a subscription to Kind News. The classroom newspaper features articles, activities, puzzles, and celebrity interviews that emphasize the importance of kindness and help children put basic values like compassion, responsibility, and respect into practice.

A subscription to Kind News includes nine monthly issues, September through May. Each issue comes with 28 copies of the newspaper and a teacher's guide. Teachers also receive a mega-sized calendar poster of fun facts and tips and have access to classroom tools like reproducible worksheets to supplement each issue.

Highly acclaimed by thousands of teachers nationwide, Kind News has received numerous awards for educational and editorial excellence. Metropolitan Veterinary Associates hopes to provide this valuable character education tool as many as 500 classrooms in Montgomery, Chester, and Delaware Counties.

Donors may select a specific classroom to receive Kind News, or Metropolitan Veterinary Associates can make the selection from their list of classrooms waiting to be adopted.
