Dana Pikkert, a Grade 4 Teacher from Red Deer, Alberta, raised money with her students to send gifts to families in Africa from the World Vision Gift Catalogue.  Her students did various chores at home for donations and even donated some of their allowance. All the students were truly excited to be participating in this cause. 

Thanks to a classroom full of 26 incredibly caring and unbelievably generous 9-year-olds, Dana and her students were able to raise $1,200 to donate to World Vision.

“Thank you [World Vision] for creating the opportunity for us to help change the lives of those in need. It’s an experience my students will always treasure.”
