The Ranakhail School is up and running thanks to the proceeds from PS 3’s fundraising efforts, including:
Annual direct drives;
Sales of “Key to the Heart,” a beautiful book of traditional Afghan tales illustrated by both PS 3 and Afghan school children;
Annual fun-filled school wide dance-a-thons;
Classroom literary magazine sales; and
Countless pennies, nickels, dimes and
quarters collected in an innovative fundraising and educational math
activity dubbed the “Change for Change” program.
|
PS 3 has raised close to $50,000—an incredible sum! The pictures of the Ranakhail School prove that the thoughtful and committed people of the PS3 community
have made a positive change in the world.
As wonderful as the
success of the past few years has been, PS 3’s commitment to the
Ranakhail School is for five years until local tax revenues make the
school self-supporting.
It takes only
$30 to send a child to school for a year in Afghanistan, and only $60
per month to pay a teacher’s salary.

PS 3 Dance-a-Thon, one of the fundraisers for School of Hope, generated much enthusiasm among the children
