Students help those in South America
One-hundred and fifteen boxes filled with candies, toys, paper, colors and pencils were stacked up in Jody Brown's math classroom at Trinity Episcopal Middle School.
The school's student council partnered with the Trinity Episcopal Church to take part in the Samaritan's Purse project.
The students' initial goal was to collect 40 boxes, but that number was quickly surpassed when the student council was able to encourage their peers to collect items to put in the boxes.
"It was amazing how we all came together to help out these children in another country," Theodore Boozalis, eighth-grader and student council representative, said.
