On Tuesday we heard a report from members of the J Percy Page High School Interact club that is sponsored by our Rotary club.
Sophie, Selma and Fatima gave us a report on their fundraising activities for the past year. Their club has about forty members and meets Thursdays at noon to plan the various activities. At Halloween they hosted a Horror Movie, which raised four hundred dollars and was donated, along with matching funds, to Polio Plus.
At Christmas they sold Candy-grams which raised one hundred fifty dollars that was donated to the Food Bank. At Valentines they sold roses, which were donated by Heather de Kok, which raised two hundred dollars for charity.
They have also made four trips this winter to Ronald McDonald House to prepare meals and also have a trip planned to the Hope Mission to prepare and serve a meal.
They are a very enthusiastic group of young people, who are building charitable habits, that will hopefully stay with them for life.
