Jump Rope for Hope
Grade Three
Thursday, December 10 from 2:00-4:00pm
Villa Academy Theater
This year for their service-learning project, the third grade will work to raise money for Orphan’s Hope. This organization provides for orphans in Burma and the Ukraine. The first goal they have asked us to meet is raising money for their annual Christmas meal at the Garden House orphanage in Myanmar. There they invite orphans from other orphanages to come for Christmas and share a meal and play games. The cost is $6 per child. The cost to give a gift pack (a towel, toothpaste, a toy, etc) to each child is $13.
The first fundraising event for the third grade will be Jump Rope for Hope – a jump-rope-a-thon that will take place on Thursday, December 10 from 2:00-4:00 in the theater.
Grade Three students have each completed a pledge card to raise money for the number of minutes they jump or a flat donation amount to help orphans in Burma.
