筹款领导学生

卢西(Luci)、阿里(Ari)和阿里(Ali)是罗伯特·沃伦学校8/9年级的领导班级的三名学生，他们想要在他们的社区中做出一些改变，但他们不知道如何做。他们开始研究不同的本地组织，并选择卡尔加里紧急妇女庇护所作为他们希望支持的慈善机构。

学生们在万圣节期间出售了糖果克拉姆，然后在学校舞会期间举办了一场烘焙品卖会。学生们对烘焙品卖会的成功印象深刻，他们决定做得更大。在其他领导班级的支持下，他们制定了一个目标，筹集1500美元的资金，并收集200磅的所需物品。

 

在接下来的几个月里，学生们在每个班级设置了捐赠箱，并计划在寒假前的最后一天举行一个班级竞赛。利用捐赠物品建造最有创意的建筑结构的班级将获得比萨派对。寒假前的最后一天，领导班级的学生们和教职员工一起访问了每个班级，评选了最有创意的建筑结构。

1月17日，这三名学生访问了卡尔加里紧急妇女庇护所，并交上了500磅的捐赠物品和一张价值1000美元的支票。

当被问及他们对这个项目的感受时，学生们说：“这是一次令人惊喜的经历，我们希望我们能够像我们一样激励更多的学生去做出改变。”

干得好，勇士们！

Fundraiser leadership students

Three students, Luci, Ari and Ali, in the Robert Warren School Leadership 8/9 class wanted to make a difference in their community but they didn’t know how. They began researching different local organizations and chose the Calgary Emergency Women’s shelter as a charity they wanted to support.

The student sold candy grams for Halloween and then ran a bake sale during a school dance. The students were so impressed with the success of the bake sale that they decided to think even bigger. With support from the rest of their leadership class, they came up with a goal to raise $1,500 and collect 200 pounds of items in need.

 

Over the next couple of months the students set up donation boxes in each homeroom and organized a homeroom building challenge set for the last day of school before winter break. The homeroom that built the most creative structure out of donated items would win a pizza party. On the last day of school, leadership students paired up with teaching staff visited each homeroom to judge the most creative structure.

On January 17, the three students visited the Calgary Emergency Women’s shelter and handed over 500 pounds of donated items and a cheque for $1,000.

When asked about how they felt about working on the project the students said: “This has been an amazing experience and we hope that we have been able to inspire more students to help make a difference just like we did.”

Way to go Warriors!
