We Club
This is a group of Grade 5 and 6 students who are wanting to make a difference in the community. They have been busy working on projects to raise money to help others. See below for some of their projects.
Making Memories Sale
On the evening of the Making Memories Sale, our WE Club students will be selling ornaments and some other handmade items. All proceeds will be split between the Drop In Center, our adopted family and the Food Bank. The week before the Making Memories night, we will be showing off some of our beautiful handicrafts to entice some sales the evening of December 14th.
Fill a Sock, Fill a Need, Fill a Heart
You have probably seen the boxes and posters placed around the school for this initiative already. We are accepting donations to fill socks for the homeless at the Drop In Center to open on Christmas morning.
Giving Tree
We have adopted a family with 10 children that have just moved out of “In from the Cold” and they are not being supported by them anymore. There will be tags for needs to be filled for each of the family members. This tree will be put out on the Making Memories Night for families to participate and support this family in need.
