Kleingeld kann lästig sein, wenn es in der Tasche klappert, aber die Schüler der Greeneville Adventist Academy (GAA) in Greeneville, Tennessee, nutzen ihre Kleingeldaktion, um jeden Dezember über den ADRA-Geschenkkatalog lebensverändernde Geschenke an Menschen in aller Welt zu verteilen.

This Christmas, GAA raised $675, which is $200 more than they raised the previous year!

Students were divided into teams and each team was led by a high school student from the academy. Together, they went through the gift catalog to decide which gifts they wanted to support, including boat clinics, goats, chickens, and access to clean water. Then they set their fundraising goals and get to work.

“We love to see the students’ excitement with this project as they look outward, and not inward during the gift-giving season,” GAA teacher Angela Emde said. “Our desire is for this to be a life lesson on the joy of sacrificial giving.”

ADRA ist so dankbar für die vielen Schulen, Kirchen und anderen Gruppen, die zusammenkommen und gemeinsam spenden! Wenn Ihre Gruppe an einer Spendenaktion für ADRA interessiert ist, rufen Sie uns an unter 1.800.424.ADRA (2372).
