Penny Harvest donates to FWCTS

Students at Fort White Middle School took matters into their own hands with a project called Penny Harvest. They collected over a hundred thousand pennies and four of their chosen leader students brought their personally involved experiences to bear as they chose four local charities from a group of charities with whom they had became directly involved, to share in the proceeds of their efforts.

At a school board meeting at Fort White Middle School Tuesday evening, the details of the program were explained to the board, all of whom were quite impressed. One of the four charities selected to receive a check for $250 was the Fort White Community Thrift Shop and Sadie Wilbur, student, presented this very meaningful donation to Betty M. Bush, Treasurer.
