Waynesville Students Helping the Ukraine Red Cross

In March, Mrs. Philpot’s Contemporary World Issues began discussing the conflict going on in Ukraine.  At the end of the unit, the class decided that they wanted to do a fundraising project to raise money for the Ukrainian Red Cross.  They chose to paint flower pots and sell them with packet of sunflower seeds, to symbolize Ukraine, for a minimum donation of $10 each.  The fundraiser is still in progress, but so far the class has raised over $370.
