Each student was given a dollar in lieu of a Christmas present directly after Thanksgiving through a project called, "Seed Project for the Kingdom."
With the goal of donating to Samaritan's Purse, an international Christian relief and evangelical foundation that provides essential physical, as well as spiritual needs for those who are suffering, students began to work for their earnings.
The students used various methods such as washing cars, babysitting, reselling candy, and getting pledges of participating in physical endurance activities in order to add to their simple dollar.hen the final count came in four weeks later, teachers, parents, and administrators at CCA were astonished at the students' perseverance and assiduousness; the fourth grade students raised a whopping $2,859.62.

"I was five years old when I was put in foster care, and since then I have spent most of my life in and out of foster homes," says Raven Agarth, a sophomore at CCA.

She finally found her "forever family." To read the rest of this article, please click here.
