Making Liberty Proud
Once again Liberty has reached out and come together to try and make a difference. The school sent hundreds of Valentine's Day cards to World War II Marine veteran, Major Bill White. Major White is 104 years old and a scrapbook enthusiast. His wish this year was to have people send him Valentine's Day cards so he could scrapbook them. His story went viral and he has received more than 70,000 cards to date. Additionally, the Liberty Book Club after having read Mitch Albom's, "Finding Chika" was so touched that they decided to run a "Have Faith Haiti" fundraiser to support Mr. Albom's Mission & Orphanage . This fundraiser was spearheaded by our Media Specialist, Mrs. Laurie Matassa. Our fundraising goal was set for $360. This $30 a month is enough to pay for three nutritionally balanced meals a day for one child. We currently are on our way to feeding two children in the orphanage for an entire year!
