Middle Park High School\u2019s Interact Club has been working hard to fundraise this year, even through a pandemic.<\/p>\n

The students chose this year to fundraise globally, but also kept the local community in mind. The club chose to fundraise for La China, Nicaragua, to help with water sanitation.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe knew that this school we were trying to help was really struggling with their water sanitation, and so we decided to help,\u201d Interact Club President Brianna Renteria said.<\/p>\n

In partnership with El Porvenir, the students set a goal of $2,000 to send to Nicaragua in order to build three latrines. Fundraising included the Blizzard Fest, a winter community festival, where the club raised $500.<\/p>\n
