PeaceJam Project Success

      PeaceJam held a fundraiser during the Pomfret Town-wide Tag Sale on Saturday, May 10, 2021. PeaceJam is a project based learning group. “The PeaceJam Foundation is an international organization whose mission is to create young leaders committed to positive change in themselves, their communities and the world through the inspiration of Nobel Peace Laureates who pass on the spirit, skills and wisdom they embody.” ( https://www.peacejam.org/ )

            This fundraiser made over $500. which will go towards purchasing microscopes for the science lab in their Ugandan partner school. Thanks goes to those who donated items, the team members who did all that is involved with a tag sale and Lisa Marie Rivera and Martha Goldstein, the parents in charge of the students. Martha Goldstein added, “Project based learning is so valuable and that is the essence of our group!”
