As I am sure you have heard, Haiti has been completely destroyed by an earthquake. Everything is demolished, and so many people are missing. It is estimated that about 150 000 people have died due to the 7.0 magnitude earthquake which took place on january 12th, and by the many aftershocks. To help those in need, the school is working together in order to raise money. The blue ribbon campaign, which is collecting money near D-119, has already collected hundreds of dollars from students and teachers, and are still collecting. All their proceeds are sent to the red cross. The library is sending all the money received from book fines to the red cross until January 29th. Clothes and goods are also being collected; you can bring anything from socks to canned tuna! They will be collecting until next friday, so please give generously! All foods and clothes will be send to the Otis Grant Foundation. Together, this school can make a difference, and help those who need it most.
