Fourth Graders Raise Money for Animal Rescue Charity

The girls raised $350 for "Wildlife Warriors."

Information provided by Betsy McClellan—

Maggie McClellan, a Walnut Grove 4th grader, and Jayden James, Walt Disney 4th grader, hosted a garage sale on Aug. 18 to benefit "Wildlife Warriors Worldwide," an animal rescue charity.

McClellan and James came up with the idea on their own, and their initial goal was to raise $100. The girls asked friends and neighbors to donate items for the sale, did much of the set-up and sign-making themselves, and raised over $350 for one of their favorite causes.

They had a fantastic time, and consider the event a huge success.
