Habitat for Humanity Class of 2013 “Senior Buildup”
What? All Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools Class of 2013 seniors have accepted the challenge of sponsoring three Habitat for Humanity houses for a total cost of $225,000.00. Cato Middle College High School would like to participate in this awesome opportunity to give back to our community.
There are two ways for CMCHS Seniors and their families to participate:
-
By donating: CMCHS seniors want to raise $3,000 towards a Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools East Learning Zone goal of $75,000 to help fund one of the Habitat for Humanity houses in our community.
-
By volunteering: Students and parents will have an opportunity to work on site of the East Learning Zone house in the spring.
Why? To support families in our community and to give back to the community through donations and service.
Cato Middle College High School families and students are blessed to receive free college credits, free textbooks and free monthly CATS bus passes for a two-year-savings of at least $15,000. Will you consider making a donation to Habitat for Humanity in appreciation for your college savings and in honor of our school?
When? All donations will be made online and should be received by January 22, 2013. Construction will take place between March 1 and May 10, 2013.
