O.C. Students Help Out
Students at two Orange County schools have launched fund-raising drives to help survivors of Tuesday’s massive earthquake that killed at least 34 people and injured thousands of others in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Students and faculty at Ladera Vista Junior High School in Fullerton on Thursday began a fund-raising drive for victims of the San Francisco Bay area earthquake.
According to Andrea Goettinger, an English teacher at the school, the students and faculty donated $500 during a collection drive Thursday morning.
At Arroyo Elementary School in North Tustin, the student council launched a similar drive Wednesday.
At Ladera, the drive started in a 7th grade English class, when a student asked how they could help.
