~Troy Solava, Student Body VP,
was interviewed by News Channel 2 about this event~
The “Hope for Haiti” drive was a complete success at Mt Juliet High School. The drive lasted for 4 days and over $1500 was donated.
Also almost 6 boxes of supplies were taken: Baby wipes, hand sanitizer, clothes, and baby formula. The supplies and money are on the way to Haiti right now. The money will help feed and shelter many Haitians who were affected by the catastrophic earthquake. It is great knowing that MJHS can make a difference around the world and especially when a crisis occurs.
