Ms.
Jenna Kloba's seventh grade reading class at Mount
Pulaski Junior High recently read the novel "A Long Walk
to Water." After learning about the difficulties South
Sudan people have in securing safe drinking water the
class was led to take action.
The students have planned some local fundraisers to
assist in sending financial aid to South Sudan and have
opened a gofundme account for those wishing to make
donations from the comfort of their home.
In today's Lincoln Daily News see an article the
students wrote about South Sudan and actions the
students are taking.
