Extension of the Deadline....ALL BECAUSE OF 5TH GRADE GENEROSITY!!
We will be extending our bank account deadline even further....we will not be closing it until Wednesday, March 24th due to the fact that the 5th graders will be having a dance on March 18th called "Hop for Haiti!" Admission will be $2.00 and it is for 5th grade only. They would like to donate the proceeds raised to the Restavek Foundation! :)

We reached our goal!!!!!
As of today, Friday, February 26th--post Hope for Haiti Dodgeball Tournament--we have $15,710.60 in the bank!!! That is more than enough to support 5 Haitian schools for one year each. We set out to reach a pretty hefty goal and we are proud to say that we reached it and then went beyond!!
We will be leaving the account open at 5/3rd bank through Wednesday, March 10th. We continue to encourage community members and students to contribute to the fund so that we can continue to watch it climb before donating it to the Restavek Foundation! Please feel free to drop by the Middle School to drop off a donation (checks made out to: LMS French Class) or any 5/3rd bank location.
We are blown away by your generosity and kindness!!
