At our latest Darfur meeting, the K9 students decided to hold a yard sale to raise money. Each student, along with their parents, can provide new or slightly used items to sell. The Mall in Trussville is a possible location for the fundraiser, depending on approval from administration.
We will be asking for donations from local businesses to support our cause. A list of the needed donations will be made at our next meeting. It will be posted as soon as possible.
One-hundred percent of the money raised will be sent directly to a relief organization. If you are interested in making a donation, please leave a contact in the comment section.
We have raised over $170 so far. Thank you for all of your support!

1,2,3, GO!
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!
