Smith Farm Elementary School students raised over $1,000 to benefit Samaritan Ministries with their Penny War fundraiser. Classes and grades competed to see who could bring in the most spare change over the course of the campaign, and all of those small donations added up quickly. Samaritan Ministries provides thousands of meals and nights of shelter per year to people experiencing homelessness in Winston-Salem, and they appreciate having so much support from civic-minded schools.
"There are always going to be people who need help," said Rese Davis, Samaritan Ministries' marketing manager. "It's awesome to see these kids offering that help at such a young age, and to see the teachers who are fostering these hearts."
