Las monedas sueltas pueden ser un estorbo en el bolsillo o en el bolso, pero los alumnos de la Academia Adventista Greeneville (GAA) de Greeneville, Tennessee, utilizan su colecta de monedas sueltas para llevar regalos que cambian vidas a personas de todo el mundo cada diciembre a través del catálogo de regalos de ADRA.
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.”
