Jim Allen, Molino Park Students Raise $4k For Clean Water In Africa
June 5, 2016
Jim Allen Elementary School Enrichment classes in grades K-5 and Molino Park Elementary School Enrichment classes in grades K-2 presented a $4,082.42 donation to the non-profit Maji:Hope.
Maji:Hope works to be bring clean water to rural villages in Africa. Students sold candy bars, bracelets, shirts, and devised individual fundraising projects to donate to this worthy cause. The idea came about after students studied Africa in their enrichment classes and learned of the water crisis and its negative affects.
Working together, students learned that anyone can make a difference.

Those are some pretty fierce looking do-gooders!
Congratulations to the kids and their teachers for this great project!
It is wonderful to think that these kids may never take a drink of clean water for granted!!!!!
Thank you northescambia.com for sharing their story…
