In Albany, Oregon, about 200 children are served annually. We are looking at this year as a base to build from. Frederickson, who is contract manager for LTM Inc., received the 2000 Community Spirit award granted by MDU Resources, a Bismark, N.D., natural resources firm. Donations are still being accepted to help provide new clothes and filled backpacks to kids in communities from Ashland to Gold Hill. Contact Canape at 776-6164.
Organizers say cool jeans and hip shoes can help disadvantaged kids start the school year off right.
Just like everybody else.
