Fourth Class
Students act as
Santa's Helpers
|
A large percentage of our Fourth Class students, members of the Social
Justice Committee, and several parents recently devoted several
hours of after-school time to wrap packages and assemble candy bags
for Santa's Helpers. Since 1966, the Santa's Helpers organization
has worked year-round to ensure that children everywhere experience
the magic of Christmas. Our Santa's helpers worked energetically and
enthusiastically for several hours before concluding the evening
with pizza, snacks and soda. Parents on hand commented on the large
number of students involved, how happily they worked together, and
felt it was a great lesson in doing for others.

Last year, Santa's Helpers
delivered 16,000 gifts to over 1,700 children and their families in the
Metro St. Louis area. This dedicated group of volunteers starts the day
after Christmas, collecting
donations and gifts for the following holiday season. To find out how
you can help, call (314) 727-0186,
or write to: Santa's Helpers, 7832 Balson, University City, MO 63130.
