Every Wednesday morning for the past three weeks, students and faculty at the high school are busy selling donuts with blue and yellow sprinkles, sunflowers and other items to raise money to help Ukrainian refugees in Poland.
Physical education chair Todd Elkei’s brother is principal of a school in Kraków Poland that is taking in refugees.
"Kids coming over with just a suitcase, a backpack. Nothing they can bring. Leaving their loved ones at home that’s fighting for their country," said Elkei.They hope to raise about $5,000 for those refugees, and students are also writing messages of support in various languages on a giant Ukrainian banner in the school.
"I think this goes to show how many people take it seriously… But also emotionally," said junior Claudia Ogrodny. The students plan to continue their fundraising efforts every Wednesday until the end of the school year. Trending
