Help for Darfur

"If you have seen the news over the last couple of years, you know that there is a crisis situation in Darfur. You may have wondered how you can help. This is your chance. Beginning tomorrow, we will be collecting simple school supplies: unsharpened #2 pencils, simple sharpeners, colored pencils, erasers—things we take for granted every day. These will be sent over to the refugee camps in Chad to help students your age rebuild their lives through education. Many of these kids have only known war throughout their lives, and they really can use your help. You may also want to bring new and un-inflated soccer balls, new world maps, art paper, or other items that can easily be carried over to Chad. These items will be given to Mr. Wilson’s brother-in-law, a St. Elizabeth alumnus, who is a medical student and will be making the trip. Bring your donations to rooms 406 or 407 between now and December 14. If you wish to send letters to some of these students, see Mr. Wilson or Ms. Boarman who have the information."
