Toy Drive

The last few years I have been in charge of getting money from faculty, staff and students to buy toys for children in the CPS system. We raised over $300 dollars for Chasity and Melvin this year. Both are 12 and we found it difficult to buy for such an age when we don't know if they have DVD players, a video game console or what size they are. But Ryan and I bought some fun stuff I think.


Midway through this fundraiser we were asked to get donations for the Big Brothers Big Sisters program in Galveston. This is the 1st time we have helped them out but because of the islands state they were in need. So I emailed friends and family and you all came through. We collected $180 so those kids could have a present at their Christmas party. Thank you all!
I think that this was a very successful year!
