Emergency-USA Fundraiser
For hospital in Sudan that treats children who are victims of war

Form I Class Officers and Representative Francesco Zenati put together a fundraiser to raise money for a newly built hospital in Sudan that treats children who are victims of war.  The hospital has a special cardiac unit since rheumatic fever is so deadly in Sudan. The Emergency hospital provides treatment free of charge.  Emergency is a non-profit organization that builds hospitals and treatment centers to treat civilian victims of war and land mines.  Emergency's web-site states: “In today’s conflicts, 90% of the victims are civilians. Every year war kills or seriously affects the lives of millions of unarmed people worldwide.”

Students sold products ranging from stickers to t-shirts, and students who purchased a product or donated a dollar were able to dress down on Friday, February 8.
