Scotland Elementary fifth-graders Walk for Water on May 14, raise funds to improve the lives of Sudanese women and young girls

Scotland Elementary fifth-graders, Lina Idriss, Reilly Jackson, Olivia Poletto, and Anna Yang reported to the Board of Education this week about their passionate mission to raise funds to build a well in Sudan, Africa.

Please watch their poised BOE presentation to see how kids can make a difference with teacher inspiration and family support here (9:20 min mark).

Through a series of creative fundraisers, SES raised over $15,000 necessary to build a well, and they haven’t stopped yet. They are inviting the community to walk with them on May 14 to raise more funds to improve the lives of Sudanese women and young girls.

All the information about the walk and the registration QR code can be found here
