We Scare Hunger and Unicef

The SPIN Club helped to organize the We Scare Hunger Campaign for Free the Children. Students were asked to bring in non-perishable food items for Winnipeg Harvest. Today the members helped to weigh the items and we were thrilled to find out that our total was 477 pounds(216 kilograms)! WOW! Thanks to the BHS community for supporting this great cause. The items are being picked up on Thursday, November 7 by Winnipeg Harvest.
Our class raised $194.55 for Unicef. Way to go Room 30!! We reached and surpassed our goal of $100. Our school brought in $2 406.36 --- awesome results.

Helping Others

The students at BHS are busy working together to help others in need. Our SPIN Club is supporting a Free the Chilrdren campaign called We Scare Hunger. They are asking for non-perishable food items to be brought to the school for Winnipeg Harvest. Have you been listening to the morning announcements? Information is being shared with the school to encourage everyone to bring in food items. The top 10 items needed are: 1: canned fish and poultry, 2: canned fruit and vegetables, 3: canned stew, chili, brown beans, 4: peanut butter, 5: baby food, 6: pasta, 7: rice, 8: canned spaghetti sauce or tomatoes, 9: cereal, 10: canned soup. We will be collecting food until the end of October.

Also Ms Wasney's class is running the Unicef campaign. Information was sent out to let you know how you can donate to support this great cause. Last year our school was one of Manitoba's top 3 fundraisers for Unicef. Wow, that's amazing! Donation forms are due November 1.

I know these great campaigns will be supported by our kind and caring BHS community!
