Letter to the Editor: High School Raises More Than $2K for Hurricane Sandy Victims

The Medfield High School Student Council organized a fundraiser that raised $2,180 for the American Red Cross to help victims of Hurricane Sandy.

 

To the Editor,

I'm contacting you on behalf of the Medfield High School Student Council to inform you that the Student Council led a Red Cross Hurricane Sandy relief effort last Friday, November 2.

Sophomore Student Council representative Michael Colivas made a montage of photographs of Hurricane Sandy's wreckage and we showed it to all students and teachers, encouraging everyone to donate $1. We figured that if everyone contributed $1, we would reach our goal of $1,000.

To our surprise, with the help of MHS students, faculty and the Medfield community, we raised $2,180...surpassing our goal by $1,180!

Although we already informally thanked the student body and faculty for their generous donations, we feel it would be appropriate for the entire Medfield community to know about MHS's incredible generosity! 

Best,

Blake Brown, MHS Student Council President
