You Can Help VAHS Students To Help Others In Need
VAHS Vikings, Izzy Kuehner, Suhayma Chaudhry, Alaina Bustillo, and Morgan King are working with Leadership Initiatives and GlobalGiving to hold the “Little By Little Matching Campaign” fundraiser. This fundraiser is to raise money and to advocate for the community of Bauchi, Nigeria. “We are fighting for their human rights and for a safer community,” Izzy Kuehner. Through the Little By Little Matching Campaign, GlobalGiving matches 50% of all donations under $50. Our goal is to reach $1,000 for the community.
The donation period: Sept. 18 – Sept. 22, 2023
To donate, use this link: https://www.globalgiving.org/projects/team23314/#menu
Thank you so much for helping us to help others!
