Blain\u2019s and our amazing vendors are happy we can help make their days a little easier and comfortable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Last fall, Blain\u2019s Farm and Fleet also provided clothes to supply the Janesville School District closets at each school before Christmas. The donation also allowed Kulinski to share the surplus items with other shelters in Rock County. This was in addition to the 60 winter coats donated to the Salvation Army for the Coats for Kids Program.<\/p>\n<p>If you would like to help homeless students in the Janesville area, the school district is accepting packaged socks and underwear of all sizes along with warm, waterproof gloves, winter boots, snow pants, back packs, blankets, toiletries, school supplies, bus tokens, fuel cards, and gift cards for food and groceries. Monetary donations can also be made to the Homeless Student Fund to allow items such as (LIST to be provided) to be purchased throughout the year. These donations can be dropped off at the Education Services Center to the attention of Carrie Kulinski.<\/p>\n<p><em>Education Services Center<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>527 South Franklin Street<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Janesville, WI 53548<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blain\u2019s Farm &#038;
