Mika and Gabriela
Because They Care
During Homecoming 2016, two Montessori students, Mika (L) and Gabriela (R) proved you are never too young to learn about giving back to your community. The two students ran hugely popular fundraising activities as part of the Minute-to-Win-It event. Visitors to their booth paid for the chance to win a prize, and proceeds were collected with the intent to donate them to a cause close to their hearts.

“We wanted to do something fun,” said Mika. “We were really happy with how many people wanted to play our games.”
After thinking about how community is to them, and what it means to be part of HSC, the girls chose to donate the money raised to HSC. They specifically directed their donation towards the David Tutty Joy and Innovation Fund to help other students bring their creative ideas to life.
