Spanish Club members make tie blankets for a childrens hospital. My favorite part of fundraisers like this is being able to support an incredible cause while creating a fun event for all students in our school to enjoy, said Spanish Club member Brendan Horn. I feel that doing fundraisers like this is a wonderful way to give back to the community, support others, and create a lively environment in our school. The club raised more money than needed and was able to purchase additional supplies to make the blankets.
