Garrison students help out those in need

Garrison Middle School students volunteer to support a charitable cause of their choice through the "Students Helping OUT" or S.H.O.U.T. program.

This program is part of Garrison's Trooper Time advisory program and was coordinated by teacher Susan Bauer.

In December, students at Garrison accomplished the following projects:
- Odd Fellows Retirement Home - Delivered cookie bags and cards
- Blue Mountain Humane Society- Delivered litter, bleach, dog and cat food, and pet shampoo
- Christian Aid Center- Delivered two boxes of donations
- St. Mary Medical Center Herring House- Donated $117.59
- Heifer International- An organization that provides animals as a way to feed families throughout the world with the idea of the animals sustaining a food supply over time. The students raised $411.40 for this organization which purchased 1 Goat, 2 Trios of Rabbits, and 2 Promise Baskets which contain chickens, ducks, geese, and rabbits.
