Halloween Fun Run and kid’s Halloween Costume Contest!
November 4, 2011 by admin
Vassar Haiti Project collaborated with the Office of Health Education to hold the Halloween Fun Run! This is a continuation of last year’s Reforestation run that we held in November. We are hoping to continue this work and hold annual Fundraising Runs in the future.
Many students from Vassar Haiti Project volunteered at the event and cheered the runners on. We also set up a table for Vassar Haiti Projects handcrafts and T-shirts to continue our fundraising for Haiti’s reforestation initiatives.
In the afternoon, some of our volunteers continues to help out as judges at a kid’s Halloween Costume Contest. Here are words from one of our volunteers, Meropi Papastergiou:
“Last saturday I got the chance to sit as a judge, representing the Vassar Haiti Project, at a kid’s Halloween costume. The experience was just unbelievable. Seeing all the little kids in their absolutely adorable outfits parading in front of us, while in the midst of a snow storm, made it the best Saturday morning one could ever ask for. Just one of the many things VHP gives you the opportunity to do! Thanks for this, it was great and I really hope I get to do it again!”
