This year, Northstar will once again be supporting Heifer International as our philanthropic school project. Heifer International is an organization that provides livestock and training to indigenous people around the world. The goal is to provide sustainable solutions to poverty and hunger and also help to make this a more peaceful world.
You can help us with this project by bringing in your spare change. There are change jars located at both entrances to the school. At the end of the school year, we will count up our change and children will vote on what animals they want to send where.
Please encourage your company, relatives, and service organizations to join our efforts. Click here to go to the Team Saline website where additional donations may be made.
To learn more about Heifer International, you may visit their website at: www.heifer.org/peace. You may also go to the Saline District Library and check out "Beatrice's Goat" in the children's book section. We will read that book at school as well.
Thanks for your help! | |
