Reaching Out from a Quiet Corner

Posted: September 15, 2014

This past Saturday Jen McEathron and Kaitlyn  Frost were tucked away in a  corner of the Chatham Market, quietly supporting third world development. They were seeking donations from those passing by to help provide children in Uganda and Dominican Republic with school supplies. The James M. Hill High School students are members of an organization at their school called WRED. The goal of their on-going project is to raise enough money to purchase 20 school supply kits for Uganda and 175 kits for Dominican Republic. Each kit is valued at $20.00 and would include pencils (12), erasers (2), pens (2), a book, ruler, writing notebook (4), pencil crayons and pencil sharpener, all in a cloth drawstring bag. To find out more about this and similar projects visit WRED .
