The Student Council organized and led the event. Many people worked together to make it happen. Some people advertised the event. Some brought in baked goods. Some helped sell them. Some cleaned up. Some gave donations. It was a team effort.
A Big Success
The fundraiser collected $2151.76 in donations. Donations will be made to Catholic Relief Services and the MaryKnoll Sisters who work directly with the people. Thank you to everyone for their kindness, compassion and generosity in making this a successful event!
