Get Ready for the Global Gala

By Tracy Lowe

For the past 10 years, Stelly’s Global Perspective classes have hosted a Global Gala to fundraise money for their development projects. This year, the group is raising money to build a school when they travel to Peru in March and all funds raised at the gala will go towards equipment and supplies. This year, the largest group seen is booked to make the trip: 29 students! Along with a large group of grade elevens, this year’s gala is expected to be a huge success. The money raised at the Gala will be going towards building a Kindergarten school in the village of Huatata, through the organization ProPeru. The event, a night of food, entertainment and a large silent auction, will take place on November 19th, at Stelly’s School. Tickets are available in the office at $15 per person.
