Jacob Young and Principal Marc D'Amico

Congratulations to seventh grader Jacob Young for raising the most money during the Every Drop Counts Service Learning Project to benefit Ugandan Water Project (UWP). Jacob raised $367 of the $3,240 donated by friends of the Merton Williams Middle School community. The money will be used to bring clean water to a school in Uganda. As a thank you, Jacob received a wooden map of Uganda, a UWP t-shirt and bracelet. To raise money, Jacob presented information about the project at his church, St. George’s Episcopal Church in Hilton, and then made a box to collect donations. Thank you to everyone who donated!
