Freeman Schools Top Fund Raisers For 8th Consecutive Years

 

Congratulations Freeman Public Schools!

For the 8th year in a row, Freeman school raised more funds than any other school in the area in the "Burgers with a Heart program."

All funds raised from this event go directly to the Vanessa Behan Crisis Nursery, which provides a safe haven for abused and neglected children.

This year, the schools raised $1722.96, bringing their grand total to
$14,155 over a nine year span! The second place school this year was Riverside, raising a total of $668.


The program is headed up by the Future Business Leaders of America chapter at the high school, but it truly is a district wide event. Helping out this year was, the middle school leadership class through their sale of Valentine’s Day “Heart Grams”. The class raised a total of $417.96 for this great cause.

An additional $578 was raised at Red Robin on February 7th, 2013,
with the remainder being raised from the sale of paper hearts throughout the community.


A  huge thank you goes out to everyone who dined at Red Robin on the 7th, those who purchased and sold hearts, and for those who either made, sold, or bought heart grams.
