The 5th grade helped entertain children at Mary's Place, 6th grade helped at Westside Baby, the 7th grade prepared delicious meals for Mary's place and the 8th grade helped sort food at the White Center Food Bank. Auction attendees were asked to contribute money corresponding to hours of work spent per project.
