The holiday season brought about a lot of opportunities for our Interactors to help out within their community. The Interactors took the $1,600 raised from coin wars and went shopping for kids their ages who benefit from Christmas Clearinghouse. Later that week, students helped to pack those gifts with community members to be delivered to families in need. After winter break students worked hard to raise money to help eradicate Polio with their Purple Pinkie Project. Students at Creekside paid $0.50 to have their pinkies painted before school and during lunches. Why paint your pinkies purple you may ask? Overseas, when a child is vaccinated, they put a purple stamp on their little finger. So each pinkie painted is a step closer to making Polio history. As we look towards February the Interactors are working in collaboration with our Student Council to start a kindness initiative - details to come.
