We are trying to set up a fundraiser in the school for a foundation called I-Open.  This is a foundation that gives money to people in need in Africa.  Last year people raised enough money to buy desks for school children.  This year, I-Open is trying to raise enough money to afford uniforms for the children in school.  Uniforms allow the children to wear about the same outfit every day so they don’t need tons of clothes.  Tomorrow we will host a hat day where you can wear a hat for just $1 in the building.  Thanks for making an effort to help children in need.
