Kelli, who is a teacher, said everyone 鈥済ot a little description of who they were聽buying聽for and what size they were for uniforms, and what grade they were in for school supplies that were needed.鈥�
According to the report, the supplies were later donated to Booker T. Washington Elementary School in Tampa, Florida.
The couple decided on the concept since Kelli liked the idea of giving school supplies and her husband Matt was not 鈥渁 fan of the whole wedding gift idea.鈥� Kelli also explained that they did not need much as a couple, and that they could handle their own needs.
鈥淏eing a teacher, I know a lot of kids come with nothing to school,鈥� she said in the report. 鈥淎nd you see the kids so excited about the little things: a backpack, or new shoes. It鈥檚 so important that they can start school excited, and a lot of teachers spend their own money for their kids. This helped out a little bit.鈥澛� Ryan Arcadio /ra
