THE VOW OF SILENCE
The St John Central High School Interact Club is raising $8,500.00 to build a new school house in Africa. They will be participating in the VOW OF SILENCE which will begin on March 5, 2009 at 3:00 pm EST. What does it mean to be silent? Being silent can simply mean refraining from speaking out loud. It can also mean cutting yourself off from e-mail, Facebook, and text messaging and cell phone use. Or you can take it to the extreme and ban hand gestures, note writing, miming and using sign language. This fundraising campaign is being done by the members of the St. John Interact Club to raise $8,500 to build a one room school for girls in Africa. They will be asking sponsors to pledge a donation for each hour, minute or second of silence or for the whole 24 hour period. One time monetary donations are also being accepted. Contact St John Central High School at (740) 676-4932 or Mike McFarland (mikemcfarland46@comcast.net), Interact Faculty Sponsor at St. John. You can also contact the Bridgeport Rotary Club for more information. For more information about "THE VOW OF SILENCE" program visit their website at www.iamsilent.com
