Mr.
Keins' grade 4 class is currently running a fund raiser to support
orphanages/schools in Zambia. The are working to collect basic items:
socks, toothbrushes, small toys, to send to Hope for Africa: a charity
based in Zambia which supports a number of the orphanages/schools which
are primarily populated by children who have lost their caretakers to
the AIDS epidemic. Our goals are to collect these items and raise $200
to send these items via mail directly to one or more of the schools.
So far the class has raised about half of what is needed. Donations of any amount will be greatly appreciated. Please donate to this worthy cause.
The class has prepared donation boxes and posters which are distributed
around our school as well as putting on presentations and skits at our
school assemblies to garner interest and donations.
