#25 what can IDCI learn from Monarch Park Collegiate?

When I read this story, it gave me goosebumps. I think that IDCI could learn a lot from this. It just goes to show that no matter where we come from, or how little money we have, or how little cooperation we have with each other, when it boils down to helping those less fortunate then us, or someone who is in need of immediate assistance, most people feel the need to help. It amazes me that a school this diverse, and crime stricken can stand together and raise enough money to send $32,000 worth of supplies to South Asia and Africa after a tsunami. I think that even though they are less fortunate and wealthy than us, they raised this much money because Cheryl's story showed some of the students that living conditions for other kids around the world can sometimes be ten times as worse as the living conditions that some of the students have to live in. I just found this story really inspirational and amazing!
