“Change for Change” Raises Funds for Text Books

6/25/2015

0 Comments

 
Granby teacher and Board Member Elaine Chagnon gave presentations at Kelly Lane Intermediate School, Kearns Primary School, and Granby Memorial High School on the Graceland International School project and the desperate need for text books.  Titled “Change for Change”, Chagnon encouraged students to donate spare change for the purchase of text books.  
In Nigeria, a text book can be purchased for about $5.  After having received a detailed list of the books needed for the school, Chagnon figured that about $5000 would be needed to purchase the 1000 needed text books.
