Giving makes you feel good!
Many thanks to all those people who have already bought gift tags for the Pfrang children. You will make them very happy! In some homerooms, nearly all the children have contributed. In others, no-one has contributed yet. But there’s still time! Get a group of 5 friends together and donate 20RMB each to buy one. You’ll feel GREAT! You can get the tags in the Library or from me in C146. The trophies are here, so are the sweets-which homeroom and advisory will be the recipients? The box of chocolates is also here-which donor will win the raffle? Make a Pfrang student’s day!
