Good morning,
You may feel quite
removed from the events in Japan and Ecuador but every other year 20 Carrboro
High students travel to Bahia de Caraquez in Ecuador to work on a reforestation
project. These students know of the generosity we receive when in their
city. Well now Bahia could use our help. They need clean water and
emergency supplies to make it through this difficult time. You can donate
directly to the relief effort being coordinated by GSE in Bahia by going to Mr.
Klakovich's website or bring cash donations to room D214. Thank you.
