BRHS Donates gifts to Salvation Army - Angel Tree

The Key Club is a student-led community service organization at Big Rapids High School. Key Club, part of the Kiwanis family of community service clubs, emphasizes community service and fosters the building of leadership skills in high school students.

This holiday season, the BRHS Key Club has partnered with the Salvation Army to sponsor an Angel Tree. Students and staff selected cards representing 50 children in the Mecosta County area who are from families in financial need. Gifts were bought by participants and contributed to the Salvation Army.

According to Key Club faculty advisor Brian Weaver, “This is a fantastic opportunity for BRHS staff and students to help warm the body and hearts of children throughout our community. It serves to remind us that we are all part of a larger community and that we are responsible for the well-being of every community member.”

A great big “thank you” goes out to the Big Rapids High School students and staff who have contributed to a happy holiday season for everyone!
