Students in grades 1-3 at Jenny Lynn Elementary, Kingston, recently raised $1,479 as part of their Share the Love Campaign. Each student selected a charity to raise money for during the Christmas season and asked the community to help them reach their goals. An online video was created that told the story of each students’ selected charity and they also wrote letters. As a result of the amount raised, $246 was donated to each charity. Charities included SPCA, Make-A-Wish, Charity Inc., First Books, Toys for Tots and National Junior Tennis and Learning. Some of the participants, from left, are David Gesky, Chloe Tyson, Cole Makarewicz, Sam Shovlin, Alanna Elgonitis, Doron Glynn and Jack Tanski.
