Penny War for Haiti
The students at Crestomere spent last week engaged in a class-to-class "Penny War" to raise money for aid in Haiti. Every day, students would bring their pennies and drop them in their home room jars. Then they'd take silver or, in some cases, bills around to other classes and 'bomb' their jars. The silver and bills counted against the collected pennies in each classroom, but in the end, the Canadian Red Cross and the victims of the Haitian earthquake were winners as the school raised $1100.75 in just five days.
We are so proud of our community for showing again, just how much they care for those less fortunate. The Crestomere community really knows how to put the CARE in CALL!
