We are grateful to student teacher Linda Glodt for sending us letters that Kelly Elementary students wrote after studying Fred Meyer, among other famous Oregonians. In fact, we enjoyed reading the letters so much we decided to share them with our website visitors... Thanks to Andrea, Harvey, Cristian, Logan, Jaime, and Valeriy for their sentiments and interest in philanthropy. Keep up the good work!

Here are the letters:

Dear Sir,
In my 4th grade class we’ve been studying about famous Oregonians. My favorite Oregonian is Fred Meyer. I want to do something like him, like open a store and open a trust fund.
Sincerely,
Andrea

Dear Fred Meyer,
I am studying famous Oregonians. He made Fred Meyers. I hope to make a difference in my community donating money to an orphanage.
Sincerely,
Harvey

Dear Fred Meyer,
My class studied you and other people because you started out small and now your one of Oregon’s largest one stop shopping centers. I want to help my community by planting trees and removing non-native plants.
Sincerely,
Cristian

Dear Fred Meyer,
My class is studying timelines and right now I’m studying Fred Meyer. I hope to make a difference in my community by helping the world by picking up garbage and donating money to schools.
Sincerely,
Logan

Dear Fred Meyer,
In my 4th grade class, we’ve been studying famous Oregonians. I like Fred Meyer because he helps people. I want to help community by buying stuff.
Sincerely,
Jaime

Dear Sir,
In my 4th grade class we’ve been studying famous Oregonians like Linus Pauling, Tom McCall, Chief Joseph, Bertha Holt, Abigail Scott Duniway, and Fred Meyer. I especially liked Fred Meyer because he helped people live and shared his store with people. I hope to make a difference in my community by helping people and giving them things. That’s what I want to do.
Sincerely,
Valeriy
