As conditions continue to be abysmal on the ground in many parts of Puerto Rico a group of Hinsdale Central High School are eager to do their part to try to bring some tangible support to some of the island's children. The Central students have formed a group called Campaign for Classrooms (C4C).
In the past couple of years C4C has helped to rebuild schools in Uganda, Nepal and Honduras. Schools Count will partner with C4C to help get a school back on its feet in Guayama, Puerto Rico. This just so happens to be the very location where Hurricane Irma came ashore on September 21st.
C4C will raise funds for Marcela Cora Garcia Elementary to get up and running to full speed. Over the next couple of days we will provide everyone with more information about the situation in Guayama going forward. As of this morning communications, the existence of clean water and many other life essentials continues to be sparse.
So, hats off to the members of C4C for their willingness to do something to bring aid and comfort to the students at MCG Elementary!
