ACTIVITIES AND AFFAIRS
CAHILLITE FOR KIDS
Attention all students
Over a 2 week time span, your generosity helped Cahillites for Kids provide 165 warm jackets, 44 scarves, 80 winter hats, and 61 pairs of gloves to those who will most need them this winter. We had a first-hand view of 25 children being the first recipients of these articles of clothing and it was heartwarming to see the expressions on their faces and that of their parents.
Your kindness helped many different groups. We divided these articles up and donated them to the SADD Christmas Party, St. Francis Inn, and Veterans’ Multiservice Center.
With the cooperation of SADD, Ambassadors, Student Council, C.S.C., N.H.S., Roman Athletics, and you, this first of hopefully many “Cahillites for Kids” Coat Drives has been very successful. You have passed the school’s expectations once again and the Roman family is very grateful and humbled because of it. You not only warmed a body, but also a heart. Thank you!
