Make Quinton’s wish come true. For<br />

the second year in a row, Clay is making a<br />

kid’s wish come true with the help of all of<br />

Clay’s students and staff.This year, Clay is<br />

helping a boy named Quinton. He has a life<br />

threatening disease that has had a huge<br />

burden on him and his family's life. By<br />

donating and gathering money, Clay will be<br />

able to make Quinton”s wish come true.<br />

Make a wish is a company based off<br />

giving kids with life threatening diseases a<br />

chance to go on a trip or even donate Their<br />

money to other kids with life threatening<br />

diseases. Every 35 minutes make a wish<br />

funds another kids wish.For many kids the<br />

wish changes their life while at the same<br />

time it gives them hope and they know that<br />

people care about them and that there's<br />

more than pain in the world.<br />

Clay’s goal is $10,000, so they will be<br />

able to completely fund Quinton’s trip.<br />

They have a online website that has done<br />

well and they have also sold suckers at each<br />

lunch and they sold out three times and<br />

had to order more. They are also selling<br />

make a wish t-shirts which have spread the<br />

word as much as bring in money. Some<br />

people just wanted to donate some cash<br />

out of generosity and the biggest donation<br />

was $3,000! Ya thats awesome.<br />

Team Avengers has continued to amaze<br />

us with their amazing effort to helping out<br />

kids. As Mrs. Speidel would say it’s “kids<br />

helping kids”.<br />
