Thank you from Grade 6

The sixth graders of Nobleboro Central School give thanks to all the people who helped raise $390 for Heifer International! We really appreciate all the money that you donated! Heifer International is an organization that raises money and then with the money buys animals using that money to get animals for people in need. 

The class of 13 split up into groups and each small group got $130 to spend on animals. The groups bought different types of animals and some groups even spent their money on animal baskets. We wanted to raise this money because it’s for a good cause and helps people who are hungry or poor. Once again, Thank you so much for helping the sixth grade class raise $390!

And the results are in!
