Photo Gallery: KHS Young Democrats hold fundraiser for Action St. Louis
As communities across the world rallied in support of the Black Lives Matter movement, members of the Kirkwood High School Young Democrats club found a way to make a tangible difference. On Sunday, July 19, the club organized a drive-through lemonade and popsicle stand and donated all proceeds to Action St. Louis, a local organization dedicated to fighting racial injustice. Local safety and sanitation guidelines were followed. The event raised over $3,000 in donations.
“I’m so excited about how everything went,” said Amaya Marion, senior and Young Democrats co-president. “The support from the community was really amazing. I enjoyed seeing a lot of people out there, new faces and familiar faces. It was great to see how everyone was there to support and cheer on the [cause].”
Your donation will support the student journalists of Kirkwood High School. Your contribution will allow us to purchase equipment and cover our annual website hosting costs.
