VANCOUVER, WA (KPTV) -
The Vancouver community has quickly thrown their support behind students at Crestline Elementary School, where a massive fire destroyed the school's main building Sunday.
Those wishing to help can donate money through the Evergreen School District Foundation and earmark the donation for Crestline Elementary School.
A school district spokeswoman said the schools will need cash as soon as possible to replace all of the books and supplies that were in the classrooms. To make a donation, click here: https://evergreenschooldistrictfoundation.com/Default.aspx?tabid=187&e=1
