Racine Christian School 6th grade students recently held a bake sale to raise money for earthquake victims in Haiti.
By selling home-made treats to students and staff at the school, sixth-graders raised $350. The money was sent to Haiti via the Red Cross.
Principal Dave VanSwol says, “Thanks to teacher Mary Elliott for sponsoring this project. It’s an important part of Christian education to learn and care about people in other parts of our world, and to sacrifice of our time and money to help them in times of trouble.”

Way to go Racine Post!!! Recognizing children for the good works that they do, is very encouraging. It also inspires others to do good.
ReplyDeleteWhy Red Cross? Why not through the myriad of Christian organizations that are doing relief work in Haiti? That makes no sense.
ReplyDeleteGood thing they didn't try this in a public school. What with homemade treats being banned and all. :)
