The Honors
Sophomore Students were listening to the cry of the needy and responded promptly. A few weeks ago, we heard of the devastating Hurricane and Earthquake in Asia. Our students were determined that they could make a difference. They organized themselves into groups and began their plan of action - Powerpoint presentation to educate the school community; Raffle a basket of goodies; Hold a Bake Sale; and Make Posters to increase awareness. Their efforts were a huge success.
All money raised was sent to Free the Children, an organization who is the world's largest network of children helping children through education. The organization has received the World's Children's Prize for the Rights of the Child (also known as the Children's Nobel Prize). Benedictine Academy participates in the O Ambassador Program which is a joint project sponsored by Oprah Angel Network and Free the Children.
