This holiday season the Global Issues Club and the ESL Department raised $270 to sponsor a family from the Atira AWO Resource Society in nearby Newton for the holiday season. The society provides aid to women and their children in many different ways, two of which are providing housing and educational resources. The fund raising efforts began with the ESL classes doing their annual Christmas Raffle ticket sale, with up to $100 in gift card prizes this year. The Global Issues Club sold baked goods and hosted a movie night by donation, which turned out to be a very popular after school event. All the money raised was used to buy groceries and gifts to help make the holidays a little brighter for a family over Christmas. The Global Issues Club and the ESL classes would like to thank Sullivan Heights students and staff for helping out with this annual cause.
