Spanish Fork High School may have lost some of its numbers with the building of two new schools, but that doesn’t mean it lost any generosity or caring for others. When the massive earthquake hit Haiti, the National Honor Society of SFHS took charge of a fundraiser to send some Spanish Fork Don support to Haiti. The whole school took part by donating money, personal care items, and writing letters for the Haitian people. Not long after, news spread about another earthquake, in Chile. Once again, the students of Spanish Fork emptied their pockets, donating their lunch money to those who needed food more than them. Christina Heywood, a member of the NHS, said, “I’m really proud of how the student body pulled through on our fundraiser! We were able to raise over nine hundred dollars which will go straight to helping people.” As the money was counted and a check was given to the American Red Cross, it was truly seen how the students of SFHS were “Rock Solid”, emulating this year’s motto. We can only expect more great things to come from this amazing school.
