The Pembroke Pines Charter Elementary School Central Campus, 12350 Sheridan Street, proclaimed the months of April and May as Charity and Act of Kindness months, “to further instill in our students the need for charity and acts of kindness towards others,” said organizer and Curriculum Specialist Alina Perry-Smith. Focusing on doing good for others was the theme behind a Student Council campaign held in March …. “Be the Change and help the Homeless”. The students raised$1,000.00 which was collected for the Broward Outreach Women’s Center” continued Perry-Smith. But there was more to do….
During the month of April students participated in a Community Read-in Week and Multicultural Night. The theme for the Community Read-in Week is “A person’s a person, no matter how small.” Students collected money to purchase T.Y. bears for homeless children, and donated funds so the Humane Society can purchase supplies for the animals, and they will also performed random acts of kindness throughout the month such as sharing a snack with a friend, helping at home, being kind to someone younger, protecting the environment by recycling, and etc.
