Wrapped in
Love
For the third year, members of the
National Honor and National Junior
Honor Societies made blankets in
the high school cafeteria. Students
worked in pairs to make the blankets,
a thick fleece that is tied along the
edges. The blankets are made from kits
coordinated by the Wrapped in Love
Foundation. They will be distributed to
cancer patients in area hospitals. Each
kit is $17 and is purchased by the group
making the blanket.
The Wrapped in Love project is just
one of the many community service
activities supported by the honor
societies. On May 21, members will
collaborate with borough officials to
determine community service activities
within the communities.
The organization is sponsored by
gifted coordinator, Mrs. Cynthia Eddy.
Small messages were attached to all the
blankets to offer a word of concern and comfort.
