Help a very worthy cause
Jun. 12th, 2010 01:05 pmMy son is off to Middle School next year! I can't believe my baby is growing up so fast!!!
Anyway - there has been a wonderful after school program for a number of years, but the funding for the program fell through for this year. This is a program with 90% participation among the student body and provides everything from bowling to theatre classes and homework help.
The wonderful industrial arts teacher at the school, Jason Circle, has applied for a Pepsi "Refresh Everything" grant to continue the program. Although I am normally dubious about corporate sponsorship of schools, I am also a parent that is all too aware of how infrequently taxpayers seem to step up to the plate when it comes to anything "extra" for the schools. Anyway, please go HERE and vote daily for the program to receive funding from Pepsi.
