Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on
Spanish Fork High School's National Honor Society is amazing! This organization donates so much to our community including 50 Thanksgiving dinners to families in need, Christmas to ten different children, receiving blankets for local hospitals, book marks for the Juvenile Detention Center, red ribbon week and so much more! The funds that the organization uses to support these services are strictly from an annual fundraiser. This year NHS decided to try a different kind of fundraiser, not one where you sell an item and get a small percentage of profit back.
