Community Service

I participated in our school's fundraiser called Project Dance. Our main goal is to raise funds as well as awareness of The Riverside Foundation. This is a facility that helps adults who are developmentally disabled so they are able to live more independently. What the participates do is put a team together and raise money. As a team, we hand in the money we raised and we all receive T-shirts. We wear them on the night of Project dance. This year Project Dance was April 13th held in the Sports Center of our school. We dance for five hours and also are given food and entertainment. Usually the Riverside Foundation sends us a video just to say thanks and it really does put a big smile on your face. You feel great because you are giving back to your community for all that your community has done for you. This year we raised over $60,000 and it was the most we have ever raised!
