Sojourner Truth Academy and Doing Good Together partnered together to create Family Service Night on December 17, 2009.
The results are in on how STA families made a difference in Minneapolis: 135 children and their parents worked together to make a difference by serving others. 31 tie blankets were made and brought... to Project Linus. 216 sandwiches were made and brought to Catholic Charities. 95 place mats were decorated and given to Meals On Wheels. 47 cards were made and sent to 2 children with terminal illness. 20 giving boxes were decorated and taken home to collect future donations to be given to non-profits. Over 30 thank you cards were made to be sent to foundations that have donated money and supplies to STA. All of these service projects will make a positive impact in someone's life.
A big THANK YOU to all of the staff and families that worked so hard to make this special night possible!!! |
