Each student researched and selected a charity to write a persuasive essay trying to convince their classmates their charity should be selected for the donation. The students raised $942.91! The charities selected were the American Cancer Society and the Iowa City Children's Hospital. The winning essays were from Lily Putnam, Sean Hayes, Adler VanOpdorp, Sofie Diebold and Brooke Herington. Congrats!!
