If the volume of caring and
dedication towards helping the community could be quantified, Mustangs have
once again shown their character in the form of a mountain of cans! Students and staff at Vincent Massey
Secondary School once again displayed what can be achieved when working
together during the school’s annual Can Drive, held during the months of
November and December, 2014. Determined
to contribute as much as possible in order to help those in need, our Mustangs
teamed up and managed to collect an astounding 14,075 cans of non-perishable
items for the community!
Daily announcements, updates, and
prizes served as motivation for our Mustangs to keep on contributing, as the
hard work and non-stop dedication from Ms. Ulch, Mrs. Hudec, Mrs. Jun-Biswas, and
Mrs. Sun proved to be a success!
The title of Top Contributing Class
goes out to Mr. Ing’s homeroom, who managed to collect an astounding 2 149
cans! Top individual contributors were
as follows:
·
John Guttman, 769 cans
·
Stefano Lee, 727 cans
·
Joey Chen, 589 cans
·
Karis Thorne, 453 cans
As always, we are proud of the commitment,
perseverance, and enthusiasm put forth by our Mustangs, who have shown time and time again that
contributing to the community and helping those in need serves a vital
purpose. Our Can Drive not only
generates a significant and viable amount of tangible aid to the community, but
it also helps form the realization within our students that their actions and
efforts can make a positive impact on the lives of others. In working together to become the change that
they wish to see in the world, our students will also gain the confidence
needed to realize their own dreams and goals as well.
