My Project

Our school's student council members develop community service projects that often give back to our neighboring or feeder pattern schools. Every year, our students plan and host Easter egg hunts at the elementary school and a neighboring daycare, providing candy-filled eggs and monetary surprises. This will be our third year completing this project.

These supplies will help us ensure the young scholars enjoy a fun-filled Easter egg hunt and receive happies that they may not otherwise get at home.

This year, our goal is to meet the needs of two different schools.

Our students work tirelessly to serve their community. Often, students their age don't think to give back, and unfortunately, they may not have the funds to complete the projects they wish to take part in. Your donation would help us to continue this tradition of hosting this fun event.
