Our project has officially been started! This morning was our first Darfur meeting. There were some excellent ideas expressed and put into action within 30 minutes. Imagine what a group of hard-working 7th grades can do in a month! As of today, the K-9 team has raised $17.00 to send to Darfur. We have many ideas to put into action.
For the rest of the week, the school's news will announce that we have a donation box in Mrs. McIntosh's classroom. We are hoping to place more boxes around HTMS very soon to collect more donations.
As of Monday, we will have a jar full of jellybeans at the school. You can pay 25 cents to submit a guess as to of how many jellybeans are in the jar. The student with the closes guess will win the jar. The objective is to give an incentive to learn about the issues in Darfur and to stop them.
Our campaign managers are in search of a guest speaker. They are looking for somebody who is passionate about spreading the word for this great cause. If you are available to help, please leave you're name and a way to contact you in the comment's section. We will be sure to get back with you soon.
Thank you to everyone who has helped to spread awareness about the issues in Darfur. Remember: spreading awareness does not mean creating a fundraiser. It means telling your friends and family about the second Holocaust occurring on our Earth. YOU play a big role in helping to find a cure for Dafur. Thank you!

Hey gang,
I am SO proud of you guys for what you all are doing. It has just been amazing to see this thing get started. I can't wait to see how much money we raise.
I am so excied about this. The website looks wonderful! Y'all have put a lot of hard work into it. Congrats to Alyssa on such a wonderful video!! With how much money we have already made in these last couple of months, I know we can help with this crisis! I can not wait until Ms. Faust allows up to set up a donations box in the lunchroom. I know the funds will increase a lot by then! I also think the jelly bean jar is a great idea. It would be cool to set that up in the lunchroom too, cause everyone would see it! I will see you guys at the next meeting! Keep up the hard work!
The yard sale sounds like a great idea! We could print out signs and ask them to hand them out at the Primary and Intermediate! That way we could get the word out out! i am so proud of all of y'all! I can't wait for it!
