Close to the end of the school year, Heavah held a fund raiser at her school, Montverde Academy. Before the fund raiser took place, Heavah stood in front of her school and shared her experiences and love of living in Nepal. She had a short presentation that described the situation in Nepal after the earthquake and the need to help rebuild schools. A week later the fund raiser took place. The idea was simple, but clever. Students at Montverde normally have a strict uniform policy. However, for this particular Friday students were allowed to wear jeans to school if they made a donation. The fund raiser was a great success!
Madelyn (12) and Angelina (13) put together flyers for their school and collected items to sell for the Somerfest Flohmarkt (a fleamarket) at the International School of Hamburg in Germany. They were able to answer questions and raise awareness and money to donate to Hearts and Hands for Nepal.
They did a great job!
More to come!!
