\"\"<\/a>This year, Steller Secondary School partnered with The American Red Cross of Alaska \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Haiti Earthquake Relief to raise money to help support those impacted by the earthquakes that devastated Haiti on January 12, 2010.\u00c2\u00a0 The American Red Cross is working with its partners in the global Red Cross and Red Crescent network, including the Haitian Red Cross, and other partners to assist those affected by this disaster.<\/p>\n

We asked students and their families to empty their coin jar, search couch cushions, check old pockets, and empty car coin stashes all in an attempt to put that spare change to good use.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Steller students got to work bringing in spare change, selling paper red cross logos to hang on the wall, and popcorn during lunch.\u00c2\u00a0 The paper red cross logos slowly took over an entire wall.\u00c2\u00a0 Everyone seemed to enjoy seeing which advisory group had the most logos.\u00c2\u00a0 Each day, a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Red Cross\/Haiti Update\u00e2\u20ac\u009d was written on our announcement board and included an interesting fact about coins and a fact a<\/p>\n

bout Haiti or the Red Cross.\u00c2\u00a0 Students voted each week on which teacher they wanted to see get duct taped to the wall in our \u00e2\u20ac\u0153stuck for a buck\u00e2\u20ac\u009d fundraiser held during lunch on each Friday of our two-week coin drive. \u00c2\u00a0Students, staff, and even parents then bought strips of duct tape to stick a Steller teacher to the wall.\u00c2\u00a0 In our second week of fundraising students were able to purchase valentines that were delivered to their classrooms.\u00c2\u00a0 On the last day of our fundraiser, Jen Strauss and Danielle Sjoden\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Advisory groups hosted a valentine dance with the $475.73 proceeds benefitting the fundraiser.<\/p>\n

In the end, we were able to raise $2,535.86, an impressive amount for a school of only 263 students.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Thanks again, to all of you who worked so hard and donated money to make this fundraiser so successful for the American Red Cross of Alaska Haiti Earthquake Relief!\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
