Consider Supporting a Student in Need

January 2, 2018

Dear Nature Hill Parents,

As many of you know, Nathaniel Froemming, a 6th grader at Nature Hill, was seriously injured in a car accident over Winter Break. Thank you to everyone who has inquired about how they can help support Nathaniel. The following are a few ways to help the family during this difficult time.

• Cards and Well Wishes:  Can be left at the NHI front desk with Nathaniel’s name on them.
• NHI Pajama/Hat Day on Friday, January 5: Students in Nathaniel’s homeroom have organized a school wide fundraiser. Students will be allowed to wear school-appropriate hats and pajamas for a minimum donation of $1.00. The cash will be given directly to the family for any immediate needs.
• Go Fund Me Fundraiser:  Funds raised will go to the family to help with medical bills and to help purchase a prosthetic arm for Nathaniel. The family has also been providing updates on Nathaniel on this page:  https://www.gofundme.com/wjbpt5-helping-nathaniel
• Meals for the Family:  A meal train has been set up to help alleviate the stress of meal planning for the family as they focus on Nathaniel. Open dates and specific needs can be found at the following link:  https://www.mealtrain.com/trains/yl9ww1
• Oconomowoc Youth Basketball Tournament (OYB):  All funds raised from concessions during the OYB tournament on January 6 at Oconomowoc High School will go toward helping Nathaniel. During the tournament #helpnathaniel bracelets will be sold and all collections will be given to the family. Bracelets will be on sale at the NHI front desk beginning next week.

I am proud to be part of such a caring and generous community. We are constantly teaching our students the importance of empathy and the value of supporting those in need. Nathaniel and his family are part of our Pack, and they need our help. Let’s come together and show them that the Nature Hill community is here to support them during this difficult time.

Wolf Pride!
