November 5-8: Pennies for a Purpose/ Silver Sabotage Game
- This is a friendly competition between grades. The real winners are the C4C scholars who will benefit from our donations.
- Update on Pennies for a Purpose/ Silver Sabotage! Oh my heavens, this one was a nail-biter!!! Grade 5 pulled off a win by the narrowest of margins in our game's history! A mere 467 points separated the two teams. 467 points is the equivalent of $4.67! Sincere gratitude goes to all those that contributed. In total, our Pennies for a Purpose/ Silver Sabotage game brought in $1,344.25 for our friends in Zimbabwe. This is a great start to our fundraising for Coalition for Courage.
