HAITI RELIEF FUNDRAISER AT PS/IS 178Q
February 2, 2010
Dear Parents/Guardians/Staff:
We would like to thank you for all of your donations of snack items and for all of the support you have provided with regard to our fundraiser. In seven days, our school raised $1,551.00, which we will contribute to the American Red Cross International Response Fund for Haiti.
Through this process, the students learned about the true essence of community. The Student Council Officers and Advisors, who had firsthand experience selling the items, took tremendous pride in contributing their efforts to a worthy cause. Students purchasing the items shared similar feelings of delight.
