Fundraiser will help Hunter Elementary students
October 6, 2016
Students Offering Leadership Development and Circle K will hold a fundraiser Oct.
12-14 to buy winter gear for Hunter Elementary School students. The UAF student organizations
will sell baked goods and drinks outside the Wood Center stairwell.
Funds will help purchase gloves and boots for Hunter students at a discount provided
by The Prospector store.
The Hunter attendance area has one of the highest poverty rates in the Fairbanks North
Star Borough School District, with about 70 percent of students on the free and reduced
lunch program. The school opened a pantry to help students with supplies, but it is
close to empty.
