Our Pennies for Japan project has come to an end and I am so very happy to report that we raised $193.71!! That is 40 pounds in change! We had over 1,500 visitors from 11 different countries! The winning charity was the Japanese Red Cross and I am happy to report that a donation of $200.00 was made this weekend in the name of "Pennies for Japan" Homeroom 236! I am so proud of everyone in Homeroom 236 for all of their kindness and effort shown during this project. We all learned how important it is to help others and how by working together we can accomplish wonderful things. The students made up great questions, donated and counted a lot of change, helped figure out visitors to our website, and got everyone they know involved by sending emails and telling them about our project. Great job boys and girls! You really can "Change" the world!
