THIRD WEEK TOTAL:

Thank you, Mrs. Adams, for being our banker:)

  On Wednesday, January 27th the WPS Community, in conjunction with PIE, will begin a penny drive to help children who live at the Hope Village orphanage in Haiti. These children are orphans who are being taken care of by people who want them to be safe, healthy and able to go to school. Because of the recent earthquake there are many MORE children going to live at Hope Village.

   In an effort to increase global awareness for our students, and give them the opportunity to help others, we will be collecting pennies for the next several weeks. These pennies will help the orphanage to buy food, clothes and medicine for the Haitian children who are currently living there.

  Each school community member who contributes a penny / pennies will write their name on a ìhelping hand.î These hands will be displayed joining together around the bulletin board featuring this project in our main hallway. We invite you stop by and see our progress as this project gets underway!

WAY TO GO, WPS!!! You are making a big difference, one penny at a time!!!

FEBRUARY 20 UPDATE:  Our updated total is $721.21, 3 buttons, and 1 euro:)
